NOTE: During the Library renovation, from June 2026 through January 2027, the Monthly Writing Group morning session will be held at the Presbyterian Community Church of the Rockies, 1700 Brodie Ave. See below for detailed room information. Calling all writers, aspiring writers, and anyone interested in writing! Join us at the Library to share your writing, enjoy others' work, and receive/provide feedback. All genres (fiction, poetry, nonfiction) and forms are welcome. The group is held on: The first Monday of every month from 5:30-7 PM (evening session) The third Monday of every month from 10:15-11:45 AM (morning session) If a meeting falls on a holiday, we will generally try to reschedule. After introductions, we'll do a brief creative exercise if time allows, then go around the room to share completed work or work in progress. Each participant will have the opportunity to share, then the other members of the group will reflect, ask questions, and provide constructive feedback. (We'll cap sharing at around five minutes to be mindful of time, and we'll agree to ground rules that will help keep the discussion respectful and productive.) Our goal is to provide participants with a welcoming space to share their work, receive feedback, and build community through writing. Participants are strongly encouraged to register for each session they plan to attend (see below). Sessions with one or fewer registrants will be canceled. For a given session, please email the work you plan to share (no more than about five minutes of reading, please) to Adult Services Librarian Eric White at ewhite@estesvalleylibrary.org, and Eric will print a copy for each registrant to use for reading and commenting. Please do your best to fit your work on a single double-sided sheet. All copies will be returned to the submitter. For more about the group (format, ground rules, suggestions for a productive session), please see the attached document. We hope you'll join us! Location information During the Library renovation, from June 2026 through January 2027, the Monthly Writing Group morning session will be held at the Presbyterian Community Church of the Rockies, 1700 Brodie Ave. We'll meet in two different spaces: From June through August, we'll meet in the church library: From the main (south) door, cross the foyer, pass the rock wall with the quilted wall hanging on your right, then take your first right, into the door with the "Grether Library" sign above it. It's right across from the church office. From September through January, we'll meet in Downstairs Room #6: From the main (south) door, cross the foyer, turn right at the rock wall with the quilted wall hanging, go down two flights of stairs, take the first left, then turn left again right after the water fountain. If you have mobility issues and need an alternative to the stairs, we can accommodate you! Please contact Adult Services Librarian Eric White at ewhite@estesvalleylibrary.org / 970-586-8116 x832 for directions. (You'll use a different parking lot and door to access the building.)

Elevated Thoughts Philosophy Group: The Madness of Reality

Wednesday · 5:30 PM – 7 PM

Estes Valley Library · Estes Park · 14 mi

FREEAll ages

Why does encountering the "real" sometimes feel maddening rather than grounding? Is reality something we can progressively understand, or does it inevitably resist our reach? Join us online to explore Iris Murdoch’s compelling call to face reality head-on—and why doing so can feel so deeply disorienting. You can find the reading here; upon registering below, you'll receive an email with the link to join the discussion. Elevated Thoughts Philosophy Group is a partnership with the Philosophy Outreach Program of Colorado (POPCO) at CU Boulder. Each month, we'll read a relatively short philosophical text and then meet online on the fourth Thursday to discuss it. We'll post each month's reading on the group site ahead of the session, and we encourage participants to attend even if they haven't finished the reading. Philosophy Ph.D. candidate Kyle York and other CU Boulder philosophy graduate students facilitate discussions. We hope you'll join us!

Have You Seen My Gods, A special screening of Amitabh Joshi’s powerful documentary exploring Nepal’s stolen sacred heritage. REGISTER HERE For our November program, we would like to host an exclusive screening of Have You Seen My Gods? , followed by a special appearance by Alisha Sijapati . The program will create an opportunity for audiences to engage more deeply with themes of Nepali heritage, spirituality, identity, cultural memory, and preservation through film and conversation. About the film: Sparked by his grandmother’s ailing health, a filmmaker returns to Kathmandu, a city of vanished gods and fading rituals. When the Laxmi Narayan statue, stolen in the 1980s, resurfaces in a U.S. museum, its repatriation, led by local activists, becomes a path he follows through ritual, shrines, and the diaspora. Featuring rare archival footage of Kathmandu from the 1950s and a quiet investigative thread that uncovers the identity of the art collector who acquired the statue, the film becomes a lyrical elegy and a quiet act of resistance against colonial theft and cultural erasure. Join the Colorado Nepalese Community for a screening of this 60-minute documentary, winner of Best Documentary at the Nepal-America International Film Festival, followed by a Q&A with director Amitabh Joshi , on Saturday, November 21, 2026, from 3 to 5 PM at The Museum of Boulder, 2205 Broadway, Boulder, CO 80302. This program was created in partnership with the Colorado Nepalese Community as part of the Heritage in Motion: Third Series exhibit on display at the Museum of Boulder from August 22, 2026 – January 3, 2027.

After introductions, we'll do a brief creative exercise if time allows, then go around the room to share completed work or work in progress. Each participant will have the opportunity to share, then the other members of the group will reflect, ask questions, and provide constructive feedback. (We'll cap sharing at around five minutes to be mindful of time, and we'll agree to ground rules that will help keep the discussion respectful and productive.) Our goal is to provide participants with a welcoming space to share their work, receive feedback, and build community through writing. Participants are strongly encouraged to register for each session they plan to attend (see below). Sessions with one or fewer registrants will be canceled. For a given session, please email the work you plan to share (no more than about five minutes of reading, please) to Adult Services Librarian Eric White at ewhite@estesvalleylibrary.org, and Eric will print a copy for each registrant to use for reading and commenting. Please do your best to fit your work on a single double-sided sheet. All copies will be returned to the submitter.

REGISTER HERE Join local businessman and philanthropist Narayan Shrestha to hear his vision for, and work towards, creating a Boulder – Kathmandu Sister City Museum here in Boulder. This space would allow locals and visitors to engage with the long and dynamic history of Nepal through artifacts, stories, food, and performances in central Boulder. Mr. Shrestha has a singular collection of Nepalese artifacts and is passionate about sharing the culture while creating opportunities. The Boulder and Kathmandu Sister City Project connects communities in Colorado and Nepal through long-term partnerships that promote cultural exchange, mutual support, and shared growth. Through these city pairings, communities collaborate on development initiatives that strengthen relationships and foster global understanding. Buffet dinner from Tiffin Longmont included with ticket price. About Narayan Shrestha: Colorado-based businessman and philanthropist Narayan Shrestha is guided by a mission to provide sustainable health and education services without personal, religious, or political prejudice. The organization he founded, Helping Hands Health Education (HHHE) works in close partnership with local communities to address critical disparities in care and access. Rooted in deep cultural understanding and long-standing local relationships, our approach prioritizes community-driven, economically viable solutions that can endure long after initial support. HHHE’s work began in Nepal, inspired by Mr. Shrestha’s return to his home village of Khandbari in the late 1980s. During that visit, an encounter with a critically injured child—who had gone days without medical care—sparked the realization that access to even basic healthcare was profoundly limited in rural regions. This moment planted the seeds for Helping Hands: an organization built on collaboration between international medical vol
