Let Frida Ring

Who doesn't love Frida Kahlo? The woman was an icon, born to produce beauty, so it's only fitting that Denver steps up to celebrate what would have been her 100th birthday, had she not died in 1954.

Studio Bead's celebration — Beads, Braids, Brows — took place on Thursday and featured music, sangría, tamales, a Frida shrine (with such offerings as sugar skulls and bottles of tequila) and a screening of the 2002 flick Frida on the side of the building at 3180 Meade Street; a related art show will be up through July 30. Information is at www.studiobead.com.
