Announcing Denver DA Community Academy Spring 2026
2026-05-09 10:00 - 15:30 (America/Denver) | Blair Caldwell Branch Library, 2401 Welton Street, Denver, CO
Join Us for Our Next Denver DA Community Academy
Our next Community Academy is scheduled for Saturday, May 9th, 10:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. and will be held at the Blair Caldwell Branch Library, 2401 Welton Street in Denver.
Please join us as DA Walsh shares his vision and priorities for the Denver District Attorney’s Office. Additionally, you’ll hear from several other key members of the DA’s Office, who will explain what they do and why they do it, and provide a detailed look at some major cases that we have recently prosecuted. There will also be plenty of time throughout the day for questions from audience members. It is our hope that, at the end of the day, you’ll leave with a greater understanding of the criminal justice system and the many dedicated people who make it work.
Please join us. Register online here
