This is the last weekend to let out your inner child at ARTcade, an artist-designed arcade with claw machines, pinball, and more. It’s also the last weekend to visit Jason Moran’s Bathing the Room with Blues exhibit at MCA Denver.

Other weekend activities include a comedy show at Chaos Bloom Theater, city walking tours, a Latin Dance Expo, and a Boutique Warehouse Sale at Number 38 on Sunday.

As COVID-19 cases ramp up across the metro and mask mandates are still in place, we decided to update our listings. Events with an * indicate the event is taking place virtually or outdoors.
