Monday Morning Hang Over

It was, again, a weekend filled with film. The 30th Denver Film Festival wrapped last night and over the weekend we caught a few flicks.

For two things you can actually still experience, and might actually enjoy, check out Aubrey Shoe's take the library's Frock Out Denver Design Challenge, complete with a slide show of sartorial splendors.

And if you haven't had your fill by then, we've got a new slide show highlighting some recent graffiti works in West Denver just waiting for some time-wasting web clickery. --Sean Cronin
