Community Cultural Centers


In looking at Denver, one thing we are desperately missing is a community-based cultural center--especially a place that actively brings together multiple cultures, races, disciplines, and media in a spirit of solidarity, learning, and action. In conversation with my roomie Jessi, we often talk of the East Side Cafe in Los Angeles as an example of an incredible cultural space. My own personal favorite is Mess Hall in Chicago. Hopefully, as Denver grows, we can create a space to fill this need.
