Counterpath at City Park Jazz, Summer Sundays, 2016
Counterpath is excited to host a small exhibition space at City Park Jazz, Sundays through the summer in 2016. The Counterpath canopy tent will feature a different installation and/or performance piece each week. We’ll also feature a brand new short Counterpath print publication each week. We’ll close the season with a cookout at Counterpath (7935 East 14th Ave. in Denver) on August 14.
City Park Jazz (cityparkjazz.org), now in its 30th season, produces 10 free jazz concerts each summer in the crown jewel of Denver’s parks, City Park.
