Have you ever noticed what an extraordinary number of cultural organizations we have in Golden? In this town of only twenty thousand, we have a symphony, a choir, a theater, a bunch of museums, a film festival, a lecture series, a nature center, and much more. Every February we celebrate Heart and Soul of Golden month–a celebration of the Golden Cultural Alliance and its many member organizations. GCA members improve life in Golden every day of the year.
Make a point this month of visiting someplace you haven’t been before…Miners Alley, Foothills Art Center, the Golden History Museum, Golden Beer Talks, the Quilt Museum–there are lots of options. To see what the culturals are offering this month, visit their website, www.goldenculturalalliance.org.
A couple at last night’s history museum lecture were wondering whether Golden Restaurant Week was still going. They had been to a restaurant where the staff knew nothing about it. Here’s the scoop: Yes, Golden Restaurant Week is still going. It runs through February 9th (that’s Sunday). Golden restaurants are offering lots of special deals, so pick a restaurant and eat out this weekend!
