Moms, Mics & a Little Bit of Chaos

ā Moms are taking the micāand nothing is off limits. Expect brutally honest (and slightly chaotic) comedy about motherhood, dating, marriage, and everything in between.

š NSF NCAR Explorer Series: A Total Eclipse of the Sun
š Longmont Museum | ā° 7:00ā9:00 PM | šļø Free (reservations recommended)
ā Prefer something a little more cosmic? Head to the museum for a documentary + panel discussion with scientists diving into the magic of the 2024 solar eclipse. Itās part science, part storytellingāand a cool way to spend your Thursday night learning something new.
