Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
When local personality Andrew Novick took over the Denver Art Museum’s monthly Untitled event on May 27, things got a little weird and a lot Japanese, in honor of the current exhibit of ages-old Samurai armor: A mute Hello Kitty led tours through the museum, and while the sound of taiko drummers thundered in the background, visitors played Japanese dress-up, learned to make onigiri and sang car-aoki as dancer Ricky Harada and team struck a few Far Eastern poses.

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
