SUMMARY:Andrea Gibson's Love Letter from the Afterlife
DESCRIPTION:More than a performance\, each stop will be a multimedia event bringing together film\, live poetry\, music\, orchestral accompaniment\, and intimate storytelling in a celebration of one of the most beloved voices of a generation. \nThroughout the evening\, the Goosebump Orchestra or a local symphony will perform Blake Neely’s original score live alongside Gibson’s filmed performance\, creating a deeply immersive experience that expands the poetry beyond the screen. Guest artists will join throughout the night\, coupled with film and performances that will transform each stop into a living\, breathing composition and a singular celebration of Gibson’s work. Threading the night together is Megan Falley — Gibson’s wife\, fellow poet\, and the creative force behind the original Red Rocks event — who will share intimate stories of love\, collaboration\, humor\, and artistic kinship.

SUMMARY:Queer Speed Dating
DESCRIPTION:Meet other cutie queers in a space that’s easy\, fun\, and designed for connection without the pressure. Here’s how it works: you’ll rotate through a series of short conversations (about 5 minutes each). Afterward\, you write down who you’d like to connect with as a friend\, flirty new crush\, or just someone to watch the game with at Babes. Matches are emailed the next day. \nWho’s to say if you’ll leave with a crush\, brunch buddy\, or just a night of good conversations. No matter what\, our Queer Speed Dating event is about building connections that last. \nFollow @hotpotatoheartshotpotato on Instagram for updates.
