The Be Local Bash is an evening celebrating the people, partnerships, and purpose that power localism in La Plata County. Open to the entire community, the event offers discounted tickets for Local First members.

The evening begins with light bites from Graze Colorado, a cash bar, and live music by Leah Orlikowski, brought to you by Jimmy’s Music & Supply. The program will also feature a keynote from John Shaw of Shaw Solar, followed by the announcement of this year’s Indie Awards, recognizing the individuals and businesses making a meaningful impact in our community.
