Downtown Grand Junction

The Downtown Calendar

Events

What the calendar carried when this site was built. Dates are kept as they were published rather than moved forward, because an event page that quietly relabels an old show as upcoming is worse than an empty one.

The Avalon Theatre from across Main Street: a brick and stone façade with THE AVALON carved above three arched windows, a canopy over the entrance doors and framed posters either side of them
The Avalon at 645 Main Street, where the Tweedy show played. It is in the directory, it takes the gift card at the concession stand but not the box office, and a sculpture stands at the same number. Photograph Always dreamin, CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons

One Number, Four Answers

Germination - A Good Seed, outside the Avalon Theatre at 645. The show, the sculpture and the gift-card rule all resolve at this number.

None of those four records knows about the others today. They are on two websites and three plugins. The only thing needed to join them is the street number every one of them already carries.

Where this comes from: the DDA’s own event pages on downtowngj.org, captured on the dates listed under Sources. The published First Friday schedule runs to 2027; the two one-off events kept the dates they were held. All sources
