Sips, Strings & Local Things—Patio Happy Hour

Food Shed Patio Happy Hour: Sips, Strings & Local Things
Join us on the Food Shed patio for First Friday: Sips, Strings & Local Things on Friday, October 2, from 5:30–8:00 PM!
Kick off October with a fall evening of live music, pizza, beer, wine and good company. Grab a fresh pizza from the Your Sister’s Tomato food truck, pick up a beer or glass of wine, and settle in on the patio for the music.
We’re especially excited to welcome singer-songwriter and guitarist Tim Merkel to the Food Shed stage for the first time. Before moving to Colorado—and well before the Food Shed opened—Tim was a local favorite, performing throughout our region. He was also an early believer in the Food Shed, becoming owner #373.
A classically trained guitarist and prolific songwriter, Tim has been writing and performing for more than 40 years, with roots in Chicago’s Old Town folk scene and influences ranging from John Prine and James Taylor to Bob Dylan, Gordon Lightfoot and John Denver.
Now Tim is bringing his guitar back to the area. Come help us welcome him home and enjoy his first local performance in many years!
Bring a friend, grab a slice and something to sip, and join us for a relaxed fall evening at the Shed.
Free admission • Live music • Pizza, beer & wine available for purchase • Everyone welcome!
