Boulder Local: Shelter Cuts, Races, Art Workshops, and More
Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Thursday, March 27, 2025.
Boulder's only general-population homeless shelter, All Roads, is reducing its capacity from 180 to 160 beds starting April 21 due to cuts in local government grants and funding uncertainties. This comes after the shelter increased capacity just last June, but has since turned people away on two out of three nights due to being at capacity.
In transportation news, drivers should be aware that the Boulderthon Marathon, Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K races will be held this Sunday. While all community members will have access to their homes, delays are expected, and detours are recommended. Pay close attention to law enforcement and traffic marshals to ensure safety for runners and travelers alike.
For those looking for weekend entertainment, the Fox Theatre is hosting indie pop quartet Melt with Nashville singer-songwriter Katie Lynne Sharbaugh on April 3. The band will be performing in support of their debut LP.
Art enthusiasts can head to Colorado Glass Works tomorrow evening for a unique date night experience. Couples can make their own pre-chosen stained glass piece during this hands-on night of art making.
On Saturday, pARTiculars Art Gallery and Teaching Studio in Lafayette is offering a workshop on the art of repair, where participants can bring items to mend while learning embroidery and appliqué techniques.
For a dose of laughter, check out Left Hand Laughs at Left Hand Brewing Company tonight. The standup comedy showcase features headliner Eeland Stribling alongside other talented comedians.
Nature lovers should note that Ron Stewart Preserve at Rabbit Mountain will be closed most Mondays and Tuesdays from October 7 through January 28 next year.
Looking ahead, Boulder Arts Week is set to kick off on April 4, featuring an incredible array of cultural experiences from murals and installations to music and dance throughout the city.
Lastly, a reminder that the free Hessie Trailhead Shuttle service will begin running on Fridays, weekends, and holidays starting May 24, carrying passengers from Nederland High School to the popular trailhead.
This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
