VOLUNTEERS NEEDED for Day in Historic Denver!

Please contact Volunteer Coordinator, Samantha Sands, at ssands@mollybrown.org or (303) 832-4092 ext. 10.

On August 6 & 7, 2010, Historic Denver will throw a celebration 40 years in the making.  We cordially invite the entire city to join us to celebrate 40 years of preserving Denver's historic places!

For four decades Historic Denver has worked to protect and preserve places that matter. One of our first successes was the 9th Street Historic Park - a place near and dear to our hearts that will set the stage for our 40th anniversary celebration. Night & Day in Historic Denver is a nod to Historic Denver’s most popular fundraising event of the mid-70s - Night in Old Denver.  

Night in Historic Denver is a fundraising event and you can purchase tickets below. 

Day in Historic Denver offers lots of free fun for the entire family including free live music, costumed storytellers and tours all day. Grilled food, beer and some of the many activities presented by the Molly Brown House Museum in Molly's Historic Denver are available with ticket purchase.  

And before heading over to the 9th Street festivities we hope you'll join us for another free event - Colorado Vintage Base Ball Association and Historic Denver Inc.'s Karle Seydel Memorial Baseball Game - August 7th, 10 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. at the historic downtown Tivoli field - details HERE.

A time-traveling gala honoring our first 40 years, with progressively-themed music, food & cocktails to match each of our four decades – the 1970s, 80s, 90s & 2000s. Cocktail attire in your favorite of these decades is encouraged.  Musical hits from the last four decades will be creatively spun by DJ Musa and food & drink stations with time-traveling themes will dot the elegant interior of St. Cajetan's, once the heart of Denver's latino community.  If you've enjoyed our recent One Past 5 events- this is the party for you!
