So You're Stuck in Denver This Weekend? Don't Despair! (Unless You're Really Claustrophobic)
Let's face it, Denver isn't exactly the beach. But hey, that just means there's more adventure to be found... without the risk of rogue seagulls stealing your french fries (those little jerks).
This weekend, ditch the FOMO and embrace the Mile High magic! Here's a survival guide, Denver-style:
Embrace Your Inner Art Buff (or at Least Inner Pretender)
QuickTip: Check if a section answers your question.
The Cherry Creek Arts Festival: This weekend, Cherry Creek North transforms into a living, breathing art gallery! Over 250 artists will be showcasing their work, so you can pretend to be a sophisticated art collector while secretly Googling "what is abstract expressionism?" Bonus points for using fancy words like "palette" and "texture" while trying to impress your date.
First Friday Art Walks: If commitment to a whole festival is too much, Denver's got your back (and your thirst for culture). Several neighborhoods, including RiNo and Santa Fe, host art walks on the first Friday of every month. Gallery hop, people-watch, and maybe snag a free glass of wine along the way. Just be sure to avoid spilling Merlot on that million-dollar (or at least million-dollar-looking) sculpture.
Channel Your Inner Athlete (or at Least Inner Enthusiastic Supporter)
Call to Arms 5k: Feeling the need for speed (or at least a brisk walk)? This 5k is the perfect way to celebrate your independence... and burn off those extra hot dog buns from the 4th of July. Whether you're a seasoned runner or a casual jogger, there's a pace for everyone. Just don't forget to hydrate – altitude can be a real beast.
Goatstatic Dance Party: Yes, you read that right. This goat-watching extravaganza combines adorable farm animals with pulsing beats., It's basically the music festival you never knew you needed. Word on the street is the goats are excellent headbangers.
QuickTip: Slowing down makes content clearer.
