What’s planned a statewide weekend celebration will include activities in the Grand Valley.

What’s billed as Celebrate Colorado is set for May 6 to 8. The celebration will include free admission to participating museums as well as a range of events across the state.

Participating partners include Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction. The featured events will include the Fruita Fat Tire Festival.

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis said the event will offer an opportunity to celebrate the compassion, resilience and strength residents have demonstrated over the past two years in facing challenges related to the COVID-10 pandemic.

“I am proud to invite Colorado communities, families, friends and neighbors to help showcase the best our great state has to offer over three days of free and discounted events in the great outdoors, supporting Colorado businesses and at our world-class arts and culture destinations.”
