Experience the Modern Salon
A Renaissance of Discourse
Our salon recreates the intimate intellectual atmosphere of 18th century France, where minds from diverse backgrounds gather to exchange ideas in a carefully curated environment. Unlike casual social events, our gatherings are designed with purpose—to stimulate thought, challenge perspectives, and forge meaningful connections.
Each salon features carefully selected speakers who bring unique insights to our collective conversation. Whether discussing philosophical questions, artistic movements, or scientific breakthroughs, our evenings foster the same spirit of open inquiry that defined the Enlightenment Era.
Drawing inspiration from iconic institutions like Chautauqua, we aim to cultivate a vibrant hub for learning and connection in Boulder County. Much like Chautauqua's enduring legacy of combining education, art, and recreation, our salon provides a contemporary space for diverse voices to converge and contribute to a shared pursuit of knowledge and understanding.
Our modern salon creates a space where the boundaries between audience and presenter blur, encouraging genuine dialogue and the cross-pollination of ideas across disciplines and backgrounds.

"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes." —Marcel Proust
