The Faun & The Firebird
The Denver Young Artists Orchestra (DYAO) presents The Faun and the Firebird, performing two iconic works by Debussy and Stravinsky.

Schumann’s piano concerto featuring Nathan Lee, an award-winning young artist who connects with his audiences by sharing a depth of musical expression well beyond his years.
Readers Take Denver
Readers Take Denver is hosted by New York Times bestselling author, Lisa Renee Jones. The event is going to be hosted at the luxurious Grand Hyatt in downtown Denver. The event is over the course of 4 days; March 30th 2023-April 2nd 2023. This event is the perfect time for readers to meet their favorite authors over authors’ signings, receptions, private tastings, evening parties, brunch and more!
Readers Take Denver is hosted by New York Times bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones and her husband, Diego Harrison.
Readers Take Denver will be funding Julie’s Friends, a charity that Lisa and Diego founded in 2022 in honor of their beloved fur-baby, Julie, who was taken too soon by cancer. Lisa and Diego understand the hardships of high vet bills for families who may not be able to afford it and are forced to say goodbye to their furry friends far too soon. It is Julie’s Friends’ mission to help as many pets and their families in need as possible.
This convention also serves another purpose: Lisa loves the opportunity for. authors to meet their readers and vice versa and for friends to get together and party hard, and that’s what Readers Take Denver is all about. It’s a full weekend of good times with good people.
