Every week, we dig through our events calendar and hand-select five events worth checking out.
Get bendy for a cause, Dec. 12 at 7 a.m.
Members of the tech community have gathered to kick off a new way to start your day. Cheerflow is a morning of vinyasa yoga, mindfulness meditation and coffee and snacks. Not only will it help you get out of bed (and get a little workout in), but the proceeds from this event will support Urban Peak, a Denver group that helps youth at risk of experiencing homelessness.
Learn about web development and UX design, Dec. 12 at 5:30 p.m.
Curious about a career in web development or UX design? Join CodeCraft for an info session on both disciplines. You’ll learn about career opportunities, see the work their students have produced and have an opportunity to hear from CodeCraft instructors. Plus, you’ll get a $250 tuition discount if you decide to enroll.
How to adapt to a changing world paradigm, Dec. 13 at 6:30 p.m.
Let’s face it… the world’s kinda nuts lately. But between AI, robotics and IoT, the future is now — and it doesn’t all have to be bad. Spend the evening with the futurists at the Da Vinci Institute and hear from social futurist and author, Chet Sisk, as he shares tips for approaching our changing world.
Podcast Book Club: Heavyweight, Dec. 13 at 7 p.m.
Who doesn’t love a good podcast? The Denver Podcasters group has started up a “podcast book club,” and this month they’re discussing Gimlet’s show, Heavyweight. Get caught up and then head over to the Denver Bicycle Cafe to chat about this funny-yet-heartwarming podcast about people coming to a pivot point in their lives.
The good, the bad and the beautiful of design and tech, Dec. 15 at 5:30 p.m.
Pivotal Labs and General Assembly are getting deep this week, hosting an evening of discussion about how design, technology, people and processes all interact. They’ll have lightning talks about the good, bad and beautiful of these interactions, and you’ll have an opportunity to interact with other attendees beforehand.
