2nd Annual Rocky Mountain River Celebration (Flatiron Park)

In honor of rivers, and as organized by river lovers, we cordially invite you to the 2nd annual Rocky Mountain River Celebration at Upslope Brewing Company’s Flatiron Park brewery! Join us for an evening of short films, panel discussion, performance art, music, Upslope beer, food truck, prize drawings and more, all to celebrate and support rivers in Colorado and beyond.

Ticket sales, prize drawing proceeds, and $1 of every beer sold (thanks Upslope!) will support The Environmental Group of Colorado (TEG) and their efforts to keep our rivers flowing and our river ecosystems flourishing.

One major project in the works by TEG (and KGNU) is an hour long public radio show to air once per week all over Colorado. The subject of the show? Rivers and western water issues. Covering where our water is coming from, what is being done with it, and what more (or less) can be done moving forward.

Your money will be doing good on the airwaves which is good for our waterways. And we’ll have a damn good time making it all happen!
