I told you last week about Heebonism 2013, a Christmas Eve tradition in Colorado for two decades brought to you by E-3 Events, a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing together Jews in their 20s, 30s and 40s. All proceeds from the event go back into the Denver community.
New and old subscribers to my column at www.blacktie-colorado.com/pennyparker were entered in a drawing to win free tickets to the event. I am pleased as punch to announce that Marci Colb is the recipient of the freebie tickets.
The annual celebration is the largest local gathering of young and youngish Jewish professionals. Heebonism, with an expected attendance of more than 500 revelers, moves to The 1Up Colfax, a concert and video game venue.
“Every year the nonprofit puts together a lively party for the local community, and it’s going to be awesome to show off our new space to such a fun crowd,” said Jourdan Adler, owner of The 1Up Colfax. Adler’s company is expanding the current 2Up vintage arcade and bar further into its historic Colfax digs by adding a music venue with a killer sound system and raised stage.
“Not only will people be able to play classic video games in the cleaned-up arcade side of the bar, but they’ll be able to dance and socialize on the ballroom side,” said Eric Elkins, who, along with Ean Seeb and Ezra Shanken, formed E-3 Events in 2008.
Heebonism starts at 8:30 p.m. with an hour of cocktails from Golden Moon Distillery until 9:30. Admission price is $18 in advance or $25 at the door. The door price will be reduced to $20 for anyone who brings new socks, gloves or hats for Jewish Family Service of Colorado.
