Provision Bar Opening Soon:
The new craft cocktail lounge and restaurant opening has been delayed. Located at 302 Wilcox Street, contractors are currently changing the façade from old stucco to that of modern brick with large glass windows. The new design of the interior will include leather tile, aged metal, brick and reclaimed wood, all which will create an industrial chic feel. Once completed and open for business, this should be a great addition to Castle Rock!
What to Do Nearby When You Don’t Want to Travel Far:
Formanyofus,thepandemichasgreatlyimpactedourabilityanddesiretotravel. Sinceweare“stuck”inColorado, I thought in this monthly column that I might suggest local places to visit which is within a reasonable driving distance. Perhaps you haven’t heard about the Kirkland Museum of Fine and Decorative Art? It’s located at 1201 Bannock Street near Downtown Denver, within walking distance from the Denver Art Museum. The evolving collections contain over 30,000 works by more than 1,500 artists and designers, with about 4,400 works on view. The three principal collections are all shown together in salon style:
• A celebrated international decorative art collection from the 1870s to the present with examples of every major design period from Arts & Crafts through Postmodern
• A Colorado & regional art collection from 1845 to the present
• A retrospective of Colorado’s distinguished painter, Vance Kirkland (1904–1981) Hours: Tues–Sat: 11am to 5pm; Sunday: 12 to 5pm; Closed Mondays Admission: Free admission for Kirkland Museum members
$10 General admission (ages 13+ only)
$8 Seniors (age 65+), Teachers, Students (ages 13+)

Plan on spending at least two hours to see this wonderful collection! There is paid parking behind the building for a minimal cost.
