Joy Park Adventure! Put on a helmet, climb high above the city skyline right beside the stadium, rope bridges, ring the bell —SO much fun for our party of 3, ages 7, 37, & 64! Inside we chalk-painted, painted ceramics (small fee), played with bubbles, built & launched paper rockets, adults watched on movie screen while child climbed a 3-story structure. Had a reasonable, healthy lunch, ended up staying 5 hours! Such a fun day (Denver ranks 1st in children’s museums I’ve been to- Indianapolis, Evansville, & New Orleans).

Upstairs Circus LoDo

Upstairs Circus is a bar-meets-shop-class concept- or a DIY Bar- where people can gather together to create unique leather working, woodworking, jewelry making, D.I.Y., art & design projects while enjoying craft cocktails, beer & wine. A place to DO MORE with your night out! Great for groups: Bachelorette Parties, Birthday Parties, Date Nights, Girls Trips, etc. Great music, lively atmosphere.

Imagine a cocktail bar combined with shop and home ec classes! That's basically what Upstairs Circus is all about! I had the opportunity to visit recently during a work function. We visited the downtown Denver location, right across from Fogo de Chao. There is another one located in DTC. We went at the tail end of happy hour, and the drink prices were very reasonable. I started with a red sangria followed by a glass of their house red. They do not serve or provide any food. However they do allow you to bring food in, so we ordered from Cheesecake Factory. The projects are a little pricey. They are around $40 a person, and can range anywhere from one to two and a half hours to complete. All of the necessary materials and tools are provided, with detailed laminated instructions. Because you might be drinking and working with dangerous tools, everyone is required to sign a waiver. There is also at least one project attendants available to help at all times. Project ideas include making jewelry, dream catchers, cutting boards, string art, leather wallets, and much much more. I decided upon a concrete catch-all tray; something that one might throw their keys or jewelry on at the end of the day. Mine ended up looking a little amateur, but it was more about the fun we had. I highly recommend this for a group outing. I saw a lot of bridal shower groups when we were there. People under 21 are allowed, of course they just can't drink. This might be a fun place to take family and relatives from out of town.
