Bundle up, Denverites! We're in for a cold, snowy weekend.
Stay busy with a virtual Game of Thrones quiz with Geeks Who Drink or virtual and in-person comedy shows. You can also attend a virtual sourdough 101 workshop. If you prefer to curl up on the couch but don't know what to watch, join Denver Cinema Club in a virtual discussion about movies or series worth adding to your list.
Daylight Savings is also this weekend; make sure to set your clocks forward one hour before going to bed Saturday.
