Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for March 13, 2025. The Boulder International Film Festival kicks off today, bringing four days of cinematic celebration to our city. With over 60 films from 18 countries, there's something for every movie lover. The festival opens with CineCHEF, a film-inspired culinary competition featuring top Colorado chefs. Linda Hampsten Fox of The Bindery in Denver is hoping to defend her title with a Sicilian smoked tuna cannelloni inspired by The Godfather.
In other news, the Boulder City Council is set to vote next week on authorizing the sale of up to $100 million in debt to finance the Western City Campus project. This development will convert the former Boulder Community Health hospital property into municipal buildings and affordable housing.
For those looking to enjoy some live music, Yacht Rock Revue is playing at the Boulder Theater tonight. If you're in the mood for something a bit different, check out Mary Droppinz with Neumonic and RNGR at the Fox Theatre.
Nature enthusiasts will be excited to hear that CU Boulder scientists are involved in five upcoming lunar missions. Astrophysicist Jack Burns calls these researchers "lunatics" - in the best possible way, of course.
In health news, engineers at CU Denver have developed a noninvasive, wearable blood pressure device. This innovation could revolutionize how we monitor our health on a daily basis.
For those interested in local history, the Museum of Boulder is opening a new exhibit called "Bending the Arc" tomorrow. This exhibition honors the 50th anniversary of six marriage licenses issued to same-sex couples in 1975 by former Boulder County Clerk Clela Rorex.
Looking ahead to the weekend, don't forget about Frozen Dead Guy Days in Estes Park. If you're nostalgic for the festival's Nederland origins, check out Frosted Ned Dude Daze on Saturday at Knotted Root Brewing.
Finally, if you're in need of a furry fitness buddy, head to Crunch Fitness on Sunday for Rescue Puppy Yoga. Who knows, you might just find your new best friend.
