COVID-19 has dramatically changed the way we connect in our community and to each other. At Office Partners on Pearl, we understand the need for social distancing and respect the current safer-at-home orders. What we can’t abide by, however, is allowing one more minute to pass without a little love and laugher in our lives!
To ensure you get a daily dose of culture and entertainment, we’ve put together a list of virtual events happening right here in Boulder. We hope it brings you some much-deserved happiness and helps restore a bit of our treasured community connection.
