Will you step up to support Westword this year?
At Westword, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $22,750 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $50,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of Westword, now’s the time to give back.
Next Thursday’s class will focus on pantry essentials.
The deal is available to new and renewing members; $52.80 gets you an annual “individual plus” membership to the Gardens, which means you can always bring a friend, as well as entrance for two people into one of the classes. Call 720-865-3525 for more information.
