Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 13:40:32 GMT

Contemporary photography is an art form in constant motion. Enabled by evolving digital technology and expanding creativity, today’s photographers reinvent the form routinely, frequently challenging the very definition of what is, or is not, a photograph.Denver’s biennial Month of Photography is in full swing now and there are plenty of opportunities out there to catch up with the latest ideas. One of the best variety shows is taking place at Michael Warren Contemporary in the Santa Fe arts district.The gallery is hosting three solo shows by a trio of Denver’s most adventurous photographers. Each of them has a distinct style, but they come together cohesively at the gallery because of their overlapping explorations of nature and space and the way we see those things through light and color. It is a commercial show, for sure, but it has the feel of a themed museum offering.Brenda Biondo’s work pushes the boundaries of photography. (Provided by Michael Warren Contemporary)Brenda Biond...

Iconic 1880s-era brewery building will be restored, preserved in Trinidad

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 13:40:32 GMT

The 22nd day of March, in 1933, called for a toast. It was when President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the measure that would allow for low-strength beer to be brewed in the United States and foreshadowed the day eight months later when Prohibition would be repealed entirely.But there weren’t many brewers around to celebrate. Most had gone out of business between 1920 and 1933, and the ones that remained had survived by making non-alcoholic beer or malted milk, or by bottling soda water. In Colorado, where a thriving industry had brewed beers sold all across the Western U.S., only four remained: Coors Brewing in Golden, Tivoli Brewing in Denver, Walter’s Brewing in Pueblo and Ph. Schneider Brewing in Trinidad.Many of the cavernous, even castle-like, buildings where they had operated were gone as well, torn down to make way for new development or burned to the ground in accidents. In the next few decades, most of the remaining brewery buildings in Colorado would also disappear.Of the...

In a backcountry ski hut, 40 miles from civilization in the middle of the night, Julianne Boylan knew something was seriously wrong with her 8-year-old son, Evan. When he tried to put into words what he was feeling, she realized the worsening wet cough he had developed that night wasn’t from a cold or the flu.“About 2 in the morning, he said, ‘Mom, I feel like I have snot in my head, it’s coming down my throat, and it’s clogging the holes in my lungs and heart,'” Boylan said. “When he told us that, that was our, ‘All right, it’s going downhill.’ ”In the Betty Bear Hut at 11,100 feet near Hagerman Pass, in the Sawatch Range 34 miles east of Basalt, Evan was experiencing symptoms of high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE), a form of altitude sickness that can be fatal if victims don’t descend in elevation.

Colorado’s nonprofit hospitals would be required to spend more on “community benefit” under new bill

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 13:40:32 GMT

Nonprofit hospitals are required to show they spend money on “community benefit,” but a bill in the Colorado legislature would require them to invest more and focus on different priorities.The Internal Revenue Service doesn’t require hospitals to spend a specific amount on community benefit, though it does verify whether they met related requirements, like conducting a community needs assessment every three years.Community benefit is loosely defined, and can include free and discounted care; the difference between the cost of care and what Medicare or Medicaid pays; medical research; classes to help patients manage their chronic conditions; staff training; and spending to help meet patients’ social needs, like food and housing.Colorado House Bill 23-1243 would set that each nonprofit hospital spend at least 3% of its revenue from treating patients on community benefit, unless its federal and state tax exemptions are worth less than that. The target would rise...
