The Lyric

18 Places in Colorado to Discover Local Culture–From Past to Present

"Part movie theater, part live performance venue, and part art gallery, the ever-evolving Lyric’s look is curated by an eclectic owner and an in-house Art Czar.  Featuring the best outdoor patio views of the mountains in town, the whimsical artwork of the Lyric spills out onto the lawn and becomes a playground for kids and adults. Hosting a variety of events ranging from live music, DJs, stand-up comedy, local food dinners, costume dance parties, and circus performers, the Lyric is a hub for all that is odd in northern Colorado. Weekend mornings at the establishment comes with cartoons and an all-you-can-eat cereal bar. First established in 2007, the Lyric has held a few spaces in the community, first in a small downtown rental, then temporarily in a Masonic temple, and now on the north end of the town among taco trucks and a bowling alley. With its final move, the Lyric has leaned in hard on its eccentricity and cemented its status as an institution in the town." - ATLAS_OBSCURA
