In addition to music therapy sessions, Swallow Hill’s flagship early education program “Little Swallows” is provided for students across the city. The organization is the producing partner for concerts at Denver Botanic Gardens, Four Mile Historic Park, the Butterfly Pavilion, the Clyfford Still Museum, and various music venues. Swallow Hill is a nationally-revered hub for concerts, classes, and community, and is a recipient of both the Mayor’s and the Governor’s Award for Excellence in the Arts, and an inductee of the Colorado Music Hall of Fame and Folk Alliance International’s Business Lifetime Achievement awards.

Elephant Revival's fiddler Bridget Law shares how much Swallow Hill means to her ahead of the band’s Benefit Show for Swallow Hill coming up on Saturday, September 19!

This very special show is a kind of homecoming for Elephant Revival - Bridget grew up in our neighborhood and attended concerts at Swallow Hill, before later playing our stages with Elephant Revival on their way up starting in 2009.

She can attest to how much impact spaces like Swallow Hill had on her, and how vital Swallow Hill is for the young musicians following in her footsteps today.

You can provide crucial support to our nonprofit mission to help more young musicians by attending this intimate benefit concert, where you’ll get a rare chance to see Elephant Revival up-close and personal, in a room much smaller than the huge stages they usually play!
