THURSDAY-SUNDAY

The delicate beauty of origami cranes, 10,000 strong, are floating at The Museum of Boulder through September. The Karla Funderburk Memorial Crane Project is on a national tour of museums as a gift to give hope and help heal sickness or grief. In this case it represents those several hundred thousand who have died of COVID-19 but arrived as well just as Boulder is grieving its mass murder victims. Visitors can create their own origami to add. museumofboulder.org
