Meet the MasterMinds!

Eight years ago, Westword started the MasterMind Awards, a program that honors this city's most creative class. Over $100,000 years in grants later, the MasterMinds are still going strong.

Meet some previous MasterMinds -- and hear about the honorees who inspire them -- at 11:30 a.m. tomorrow at the Create Denver Expo 2012 at the Colorado Convention Center. I'll be moderating this group which is far from moderate.

Meet the MasterMinds is one of dozens of panels planned for a day that kicks off with a welcome from Mayor Michael Hancock at 9:30 a.m. and ends with a reception at 4 p.m. at Crave and Organic Pizza Company, both in Spire.

Admission is $10; find a complete schedule for the Create Denver Expo here.
