Meaningful visits bring joy and meaning
Jun 12, 2026
Two years ago as Colorado was opening up again after COVID, KMC Colorado found a building full of potential, in a great neighborhood of Denver. After a year of designing and receiving permits, 2023 has seen us thoroughly gutting and renovating the whole building, all while keeping our spiritual program going, creating new branches, living in a temporary Dharma house, and setting up pop-up locations far and wide.
With a little over a month to go, volunteers have been installing flooring, repainting furniture, building a patio, and landscaping our gardens. Our new building will have a really spacious and light-filled meditation room, comfortable community areas both inside and out, a bookstore, a second meditation room, six rooms for residents, and a teacher apartment. The Center is located in the popular Slo-Hi neighbourhood of West Denver, just four blocks from Denver’s largest lake and park, Sloan’s Lake.
Permits permitting, our move-in date will hopefully be in December and our official opening will be in March 2024 with Gen-la Jampa giving the Bodhisattva Vow.
Teachers from around the world visited Kadampa communities in Edinburgh (UK), Paris (France), Concepción (Chile), and Madrid (Spain), sharing practical teachings, guided meditations, and inspiring advice that helped participants deepen their experience of Dharma in daily life.
