Nature, Soccer, Yoga, and Art All Week in Golden

Yesterday, I gave a wrong time for Coffee with a Ranger. It’s at 9AM at the Lookout Mountain Nature Center. (Thanks to reader Susan for spotting my error!)

The Women’s World Cup Final (starring Golden High School Alum, Lindsey Horan) starts at 9, and there are watch parties at Barrels & Bottles, the Buffalo Rose, Denver Kickers Club, Holidaily Brewing, and Miners Saloon.

Golden City Brewery has Yoga on the Lawn at 10 this morning, followed by happy hour pricing on beer.

Today’s Live Music:
Dirty Dogs Roadhouse – Tony Rosario at 11AM | Face the Music at 2PM
Wrigley’s Chicago Bar & Grill – Liquor Biscuit, 307PM


This will be a VERY artsy week in Golden. In fact, it’s ARTSWEEK GOLDEN. Here’s what you can expect:

This morning at 9, the Open Studio Group from Foothills Art Center will pick up their canvases at the Golden History Park, then spread out and start painting “en plein air” (that’s “outside” to the rest of us). They’ll have a show and judging at Foothills Art Center on Thursday. Can’t wait to see what they come up with!
