Written by Mindy Kaling and Brenda Withers
Directed by Keith Dixon
STARRING
Missy Moore and Laura Norman as Matt & Ben
MATT & BEN depicts its Hollywood golden boys –
before J-Lo, before Gwyneth, before “Project
Greenlight,” before Oscar…before anyone actually
gave a damn.
When the screenplay for Good Will Hunting drops
mysteriously from the heavens, the boys realize
they’re being tested by a Higher Power.
This irreverent look at Hollywood's elite will leave
you gasping for air as you laugh the night away! Fridays and
Saturdays at 7:30pm and Sundays at 6:00pm.

Donkey Days at Clear Creek History Park
We’ll have two special guests every Tuesday and
Wednesday. Specifically, we’ll have a Jenny, a
female donkey, and her baby. Historically donkeys
were preferred over horses for working in the mines
because they were more sure-footed and could carry
more for their size—they also ate less. For the same
reasons, they were also a favorite way for kids to
reach school. Now you can talk to the chickens AND
the donkeys—where else in Golden can you do that?!
Thank you to Bill Lee of Laughing Valley Ranch for
sharing his expertise and his animals. Slight
changes to activities calendar may occur.
Clear Creek History Park is open Tuesday through
Sunday (May 31 – August 31). The Park is a
three-acre living history facility located along the
banks of Clear Creek in historic downtown Golden, CO
at 11th and Arapahoe Streets. The park features
original 19th century buildings, as well as heirloom
gardens and heritage breed chickens. Admission is $3
for adults, $2.50 for seniors, $2 for youth aged 6 –
16, kids 5 and under free. Call 303-278-3557 or

But Is It Art? Discovering Four Styles of
Art with Susan Elliot
If you're puzzled about contemporary art, this
five-week course will help to demystify it by
comparing it to its historical predecessors. During
each class, using slides and videos, one of four
major styles of art (Realism, Classicisim,
Expressionism and Surrealism) will be featured.
Students will also learn how to look at a work of
art by considering its content, meaning, and its
many formal aspects. The course will culminate with
a tour of the Denver Art Museu |
