It’s summertime, and your favorite off-beat lecture series is back! Mixed Taste returns to the Holiday Theater on July 10 for another season of mismatched fun! Join us as we find common ground and uncover unexpected connections between back-to-back lectures on the most unrelated topics.
At each event, two speakers take the stage, each presenting on a completely unrelated topic for twenty minutes. But the real magic happens when the audience steps in, finding unexpected connections between the two subjects. With new guest speakers, poets, comedians, and surprises every week and the charismatic Bobby LeFebre as our host, it’s a night of intellectual exploration like no other. Join us at the Holiday Theater every Wednesday!
Topics: The Civic Revolution & Infal Records
Speakers: Evan Weissman & Juan Fuentes
Doors open at 6PM with drinks and snacks available for purchase.
FREE parking at North High School.
Your ticket to Mixed Taste includes admission to MCA Denver anytime before September 1. Simply show your confirmation email at the front desk of the museum.
