You can drop off seed before the event in Boulder. Email kristinekjohnson@icloud.com to coordinate. If you plan to bring seed the day of the event, please email the species name(s) to kristinekjohnson@icloud.com ahead of time so that we can prepare information for attendees about your seed.

The Holy days and nights call us inward. As we journey into our heart’s center, we draw nearer to the Mother’s heart, wherein we discover the mysteries she guards. And in the heavens above, the mighty star beings proclaim their prophecies for the coming year.
This evening we will explore the profundity of this season, the necessity of reaching the manger, and the guidance being revealed by the movements of the planets against the background of the constellations.

"Inaccessible" Presented by onX

“Inaccessible” Presented by onX
When: Dec 9, 6:30pm
Where: Boulder Theater
TICKETS HERE!

Join us for the premiere of “Inaccessible,” a powerful new film that inspires, educates, and mobilizes a movement for our public lands.
In this one-of-a-kind story, ski film veteran Griffin Post joins fellow athletes Eric Jackson and Emilé Zynobia to look beyond the steepest lines and biggest peaks to find public land on an expedition into a landscape divided. “Inaccessible” reveals landlocked boundaries that partition millions of acres of public land from the public, and follows a search for something deeper than snow. A ski film that tackles an issue commonly known to hunters, this film reveals that landlocked land is bigger than any single boundary line or pursuit.
Following the screening, a live panel discussion will feature athletes from the film, Ryan “Cal” Callaghan from MeatEater, and Jim Petterson from the Trust for Public Land. The conversation will be moderated by Whitney Potter Schwartz from Outdoor Recreation Roundtable.
Explore new products and enjoy giveaways from onX and film partners, including Smartwool, Decked, and Tin Cup.
Don’t miss the kickoff event of the snow season!

Where: First Congregational Church, Boulder
TICKETS HERE!
REQUIEM FOR THE AMERICAN DREAM features Noam Chomsky, widely regarded as the most important intellectual alive, on the defining political reality of our time: the deliberate and destructive concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a select few. Through profoundly personal, accessible, and thought-provoking interviews filmed over four years, Chomsky unpacks the principles that have led to a half-century of policies designed to benefit the wealthy at the expense of the vast majority Americans, and lays bare how these policies have destroyed the middle class and eroded the proper functioning of our democracy. At the same time, Chomsky reflects on his own life of dissident activism, providing invaluable historical context for our current political moment.
