A Historic Masterpiece

Built by the Wrights to counter some aspects of the mining culture, the Wright Opera House was intended to be the center of culture and arts for all of Ouray County. Now nearing a complete renovation, the Wright is fulfilling its mission as the premier performing arts venue and historic center in Ouray County.

In addition to events, the Wright has become a host for art exhibitions, with few spots rivaling its gracious halls and historic atmosphere. Exhibits change periodically throughout the year.
