What happens in 2076? It's the #Colorado bicentennial!

51 years seems distant or unattainable for a lot of us mortals. Why should we care?

AI SAYS: Because experts predict the next 50 years will be increasingly shaped by internet-driven lives, with both opportunities and risks (surveillance, data abuse, security, and inequality), making proactive understanding and governance essential for a positive, knowledge-driven future.

“LONGTERMISM” ARGUES: We need to protect future generations. “It’d be better for the future if we avoid extinction, manage our resources carefully, foster institutions that promote cooperation rather than violent conflict, and responsibly develop powerful technology. (source info.)

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Join us to start a plan to build a lasting legacy for future Coloradans.
 
This is not your typical community meeting. Instead, you'll participate in:

* Creative activities with art supplies and hands-on projects
* Small group conversations with neighbors from across northeast Colorado to western Colorado
* Facilitated visioning exercises about Colorado's future

Delicious food and refreshments (all provided free!) 
Childcare and interpretation available

Why participate? Your input will contribute to Vision 2076, a statewide initiative gathering voices from communities across Colorado. We'll publish a public document identifying our shared values as Coloradans and creating a roadmap for the future we want to build together.

Who should come? Anyone who cares about Colorado's future! No artistic experience or special knowledge required—just bring your curiosity and imagination.

We hope you'll join us for this unique opportunity to help shape Colorado's next 50 years. Feel free to bring friends, family, or neighbors—the more voices, the better our vision will be.

We ask that you RSVP ASAP! Click HERE.

Looking forward to imagining the future together!
