GERRY SPEHAR RETURNS TO THE VALLEY AUGUST 2ND
7:30pm,
Gerry Spehar is a folk country troubadour from

Colorado and a man on a mission. Hot on the heels of last year's critically acclaimed "I Hold Gravity” the singer songwriter guitar picker is back with a full blown old school protest album. Our new president really got Gerry's goat, but unlike his fellow performers, he's done something very specific about the situation. Think Woody Guthrie backed by psychedelic guitars and funky New Orleans horns. I See Hawks In L.A., prog instrumentalists Double Naught Spy Car, madman Tommy Jordan and L.A. legends John David, Brantley Kearns, Gabe Witcher and Rick Shea are the studio band. Doors open at 7pm show starts at 7:30. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door.

On August 4, 2018 Super Rad Art Jam will host the
more...0
10th annual Super Rad Mural & Skate Jam at Westlake Park skate park. Super Rad Mural & Skate Jam is a community event that brings together the exciting worlds of mural art and skateboarding into a day of fun and competition. Open to all ages, levels of skateboarding, and painting styles, the competitions include prizes for 1st – 3rd placements in each of the categories, and is the only skateboard competition to be held in the Grand Junction area. Prizes will be awarded to both a People’s Choice and guest judge selection. Spectating is free to the public and all are encouraged to cast votes. The City of Grand Junction Parks & Recreation Department partners with Super Rad to enhance the quality of the event, demonstrate our ongoing support for local artists and the positive use of our public spaces. Mural artwork is created on free-standing structures to make the skate-able surfaces safer for skaters while still encouraging artists to express themselves in a constructive manner. The goal is to increase community awareness and understanding of street art, as well as provide examples of how street art can be a benefit to the community by leading young artists in a positive direction.
