LITERARY

The Letter to the Editor and the Building of GJ

6:00pm-7:30pm, The Art Center 1803 N. 7th Street, GJ, CO 81501

Although often a solitary affair, writing demands an audience. Letters to the editor offer many of us just such an opportunity for dialogue. At The more...0 Daily Sentinel, in Grand Junction, we’ve got 400 words to start the conversation. What are we talking about here?!? Street maintenance, park developments, trail conditions…social justice, good living, or even effective governance? We’ll brainstorm, do some freewriting, and learn a bit about compositional structure and process to produce more effective letters. We’ll also offer a brief introduction into generative technology via Open AI and ChatGPT, as a way to strengthen our writing as a process. You’ll want to bring something to write with, be it a pen and paper, a tablet, laptop, or even a (smart) phone. Our presenter encourages bringing a laptop or tablet.

MUSIC

7:30pm-9:30pm, Avalon Theater

Doors open at 6:30 PM There has been a resurgence of ABBA in the hugely popular live musical production and movie “Mamma Mia”. The music more...0 of ABBA is finding its way back into the hearts of those who lived it and loved it in the 1970s, and those experiencing it for the first time now. Abbacadabra’s show is authentic in music and dress, and is performed to live music. You’ll think you have stepped back in time when you hear them sing Fernando, Chiquitita, Dancing Queen and so many more.
