The Garden at Chatfield is also having a free day today. Tomorrow is a free day for the the Denver Art Museum, and there’s a sidewalk chalk festival going on at Larimer Square in downtown Denver tomorrow as well. Most libraries are kicking off their summer reading programs right now too. Check with your library to see if they have any events planned to celebrate.
