When the world stood still, a small town stepped up. Come From Away shares the remarkable true story of 7,000 airline passengers grounded in Gander, Newfoundland, on September 11, 2001. As fear and uncertainty give way to generosity and compassion, strangers become neighbors. Filled with humor, heart, and a soaring score, this Tony Award–winning musical is a powerful reminder that even in the darkest times, we can find light in one another.

All throughout September, guests are invited to join the mountain’s naturalists as they count and celebrate the annual spectacle of fall raptor migration. Participants can observe the migration from viewing locations on Linville Peak (across the Mile High Swinging Bridge) and Half Moon Overlook (the first major overlook when entering the park). Included with admission.

Flat Footed Truths: Stories of Lived Experiences is a juried quilt exhibition featuring quilts and fiber art that depict the soul-stirring, truth-telling, and compelling stories of African American women.

This exhibit is named and influenced by the book written by Patricia Bell-Scott, Flat Footed Truths: Telling Black Women’s Lives. These stories and the truths they tell come to life in this unforgettable exhibit.

Co-curated by Francene V. Greene and Michelle Curney Willis.
