The salons will allow those with strong opinions to join the conversation and have their voices heard. \nThe goal is to take those online arguments and bring people together in person for productive conversation. Consider it an opportunity for a confluence of ideas. \nOur door is open to all\, but it’s heavy\, so push hard! \nTickets are free\, but we ask that you RSVP\, and we always appreciate donations. \nPlease RSVP here \n  URL:https://denverpressclub.org/event/the-urban-salon/ CATEGORIES:Urban Salon ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://denverpressclub.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/UrbanSalon.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20260703T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20260703T203000 DTSTAMP:20260815T113540 CREATED:20260611T031201Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260629T222046Z UID:58994-1783103400-1783110600@denverpressclub.org SUMMARY:Poems and Potables DESCRIPTION:Poems and Potables\n \nListen\, lettered lords and ladies\, loquacious louts\, liquor lovers\, libertines\, and lushes.
