Vaccines are shooting in to arms all over the state, but we will continue to list socially-distanced events in February. We look forward to the day that we can see you all in person again. Until then, stay distanced and stay safe!
DTPHX’s List of Socially Distanced Events. We like to keep our list of events that speak to us, but here’s another site that you should put in your bookmarks. DTPHX is the marketing arm and hash tag of Downtown Phoenix Inc. I can’t tell you how often it’s updated, but have a look. We may draw from this list in the future.
Arizona Good Business Summit. Leave it to Local First Arizona to create a whole summit to help you grow your business during a pandemic. Okay. To be clear, this summit has been around for a while. But this year’s summit, in addition to being virtual, will touch on ways to grow through and out of our current crisis. I went last year and I was very impressed with the speakers. We are adding it to the list of events in February, although it happens in April. You’ll want to sign up soon, though.
Read Better Be Better is one of those organizations that we’ve tracked and donated to over the years. They have a unique method of having older kids read to younger kids. This helps solidifying skills with the older students (who are typically only a couple grades more advanced than the younger kids), and gives more positive encouragement to younger kids. As with many groups, RBBB has had to adapt to remote learning. They continue to support kids and continue to recruit in to the program. It’s worth a look. If you participate in our Charity Referral Network, this is a good group to consider donating to.
Phoenix Theatre’s Murder for Two is a socially distanced play in which two actors play all of the roles in a classic murder mystery. I miss the theater and definitely did not take enough advantage of it. I guess being cooped up in your house tends to teach you a thing or two about carpe diem. But since they’ve found a way to entertain us in these trying times, it’s worth looking at this as an option between February 17th and the 28th.
Music in the Garden Spring Concert Series. The Desert Botanical Gardens is opening up its spring series, going through March 26th. The series returns with a new way to enjoy lively musical acts with your special someone or closest friends. Listen to toe-tapping tunes while taking in breathtaking desert sunset views.
Mooby’s Pop-up. Yeah. I had to look this one up. And I thought I was so with it. I really have no excuse. This is a concept originated by Kevin Smith of Clerks fame. Basically, Smith has curated food experiences, all based on fake restaurants, as seen in movies. Mooby’s runs through February 14th at the Van Buren.
And, finally, here is our monthly little graphic, brought to us by our friends at Old Republic Title Company, with even more good things to do.
