SUMMARY:Pastries and Poetry #2
DESCRIPTION:On September 22nd\, Art from Ashes hosted our first-ever Zoom event\, Pastries and Poetry\, live from the kitchen of FNG on West 32nd Avenue in Denver. \nAfter seeing them in action\, we wouldn’t be surprised if Brian and Laura get recruited to host their own show! While delicious smells wafted from everyone’s ovens\, we were proud to showcase the creative genius of several of our youth poets\, and guest poet Kylee Wellons. Most of the poems shared by our youth were written in AfA Phoenix Rising workshops in just three minutes – amazing! \nIt was so popular\, we’ve planned a SECOND event on Nov 10th with Chef Brian featuring PECAN PIE!!! Whoo-hoo! Just in time for Thanksgiving. This is a Zoom event\, so stay tuned for the invitation via email\, here on our website\, and on social media.

SUMMARY:Rockies-Fireworks
DESCRIPTION:ROCKIES VS DODGERS FIREWORKS GAME! MUST BUY THIS WEEKEND! \n\nEvery year Art from Ashes sells Rockies tickets to support community engagement with our youth. This year it’s the Rockies v. Dodgers! One of the more dramatic rivalries right now in the National League! So there will be fireworks… and there will be FIREWORKS! Yup\, the September 29th game includes a fireworks show!\n\n\n \n\n\nYou can buy prime seats right down the first base line in Section 117\, Rows 26-31 (check out the seats here). BUT YOU ONLY HAVE THROUGH SUNDAY SEPT 17TH TO DO IT!\n\n\n \n\n\nTickets are sold at the regular price of $40\, but through us\, you’ll save the $9 Ticketmaster fee! (We are asking if people would be willing to select the option of paying our $2 PayPal fee\, if you would.) That $7 to $9 difference will buy you a footlong Bratwurst at $6.75\, so we’re basically buying you food\, too!\n\nContact us at 303.837.1550 to arrange for payment or purchase below using PayPal. \nJoin us at Coors Field on the 29th for the bang of the bats and the boom of the fireworks! \nIf you can’t go or … *gulp* don’t like baseball\, please consider purchasing a ticket for a youth who may never have had the opportunity to see a live game. \n\n \n\n\n\nOptions\n\n\nTicket only (will pick up) $40.00 USDTicket w/shipping $41.50 USDTicket plus Paypal fee $42.00 USDTicket w/shipping and Paypal fee $43.50 USD\n\n\nHow many are for our youth?
