The colorful, fun and bright environment of the Fresh Marketplace is a communal and social place designed for everyone to intermingle. Staff, patients, families and other visitors can choose from a variety of food at different stations in the Fresh Marketplace. Food and beverage may be selected from the 24/7 Station and coffee and ice cream from the Espresso and Gelato bar. The Food Service team is committed to provide fresh, healthy choices for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks in-between. The dining area seats 380 people indoors and an additional 150 people outside. A combination of seating arrangements can accommodate both large and small groups.

Art Everyone can experience the beauty of Colorado every day from spectacular imagery, photographed by John Fielder, nationally renowned photographer, publisher, teacher and preservationist. Rustic indian paintbrush, marsh marigolds, purple Columbines, rocks with lichen, moss campion and colorful aspen leaves will brighten vinyl tiles in the schematic flooring of Children's new cafeteria. A large caterpillar, butterfly and ladybug wait to be discovered too!

Garden Floor-to-ceiling glass on the south wall beam natural light into the large space. The views of the plaza, gardens and walking paths are soothing and inviting for patients, families and staff.
