Free Ice Cream at Denver Modern Market

Modern Market is celebrating National Ice Cream Month with a cool giveaway.

On Friday, July 20, starting at 11:30 a.m., the first 100 visitors at the restaurant’s downtown location (900 16th St.) will receive a FREE scoop of ice cream. Even better, it’s not just any ol’ ice cream. It’s from one of Mile High City’s favorite local ice cream shops, Little Man Ice Cream.

Take note, the promo states “small scoops”, so we’re not exactly sure it’s worth a special trip (especially because of parking downtown.) Remember, the offer is only valid at the Downtown Denver location.

Free Filmmaking Workshop at Historic Elitch Theatre

Learn how Mark Roeder made his award-winning film “Fire Rip” at a FREE workshop at the Historic Elitch Theater on Saturday, June 23, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. The landmark theater suffered heavy wind damage several months ago, resulting in the cancellation of most programs, so this is one of the few opportunities these to visit and support this Denver treasure. The workshop is geared for ages 12 and older. 4309 W. 44th Ave., Denver.

Hit High-Note with Denver Summer Concerts Guide

If you’re looking to hit a high-note this summer, we’ve created a Mile High Summer Concerts Guide. Because we’re “cheapskates”, we’re not covering any of the biggies at major venues, like the Pepsi Center or Red Rocks (who can pay those prices?) — just the local shows in the park or as part of a festival/fair. Luckily, the Front Range is jam-packed with many summer concerts — many of them FREE… our favorite kind! To ensure you don’t miss out on any live music, we’ve created this helpful guide sorted by day of the week. Clicking on a link will take you to our event listing for more details, including who’s performing, showtime, location, any restrictions (what you can and can’t bring) and other notable information. If we’ve missed any in your part of town, be sure to drop us a note. Let the music play!
