Do you know what really belongs in the recycling bin? If you’ve ever wondered whether that greasy pizza box, plastic clamshell, or Styrofoam cup belongs in the trash or the bin – you’re not alone. This is your chance to get clear answers and ask your own recycling questions. Plus, by learning all the great recycling facts we can keep Derek and Scott from going nuts this summer, sorting the trash out of the recycling bins at the Allenspark Transfer Station. If you haven’t had the opportunity to attend previous Trash Talks, please come – this is a very insightful evening about how our waste is managed and turned into something useful.
Speaker: Rachel Billings, PhD student, CU Boulder Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
This lunchtime learning opportunity is in partnership with Lunch Bunch and Allenspark Community Church and will be held at 16 Washington St.

This fascinating community presentation pulls back the curtain on one of our most misunderstood neighbors. Learn how coyotes communicate, raise their families, stake out their territory, and adapt their behavior through the seasons.
We’ll also bust a few common myths and dig into the vital role coyotes play in keeping our local ecosystem in balance. And the practical stuff? We’ve got that covered too — you’ll walk away with real, science-backed tips for keeping your pets, and livestock coexisting with the coyotes in our backyard. Come in curious, leave with a whole new appreciation for the wild side of our community.
There’s something about a well-crafted cocktail that makes everything a little more fun – and we’ve got just the person for the job. Join us for Community Cocktail Hour, where Jen Kawata works her magic behind the bar and the rest of us do what we do best: laugh, connect, and enjoy each other’s company. New faces and familiar ones are equally welcome. Come as you are, stay as long as you like.
Please note: As The Old Gallery is a nonprofit, musicians that perform here often play for a significantly reduced fee or no fee at all. It is our goal to offer area residents and visitors this high-quality entertainment without the long drive to the front range. Therefore, The Old Gallery is happy to allow these very talented musicians to ask for tips from those that attend and appreciate their performance. Tipping is completely optional but highly recommended. Please thank the artists for their efforts and tip generously.
