Black Cube Nomadic Art Museum ⬛️

Denver, we are back and ready to brunch! Join us for the revival of “Talk With Your Mouth Full” (aka TWYMF, aka… “twhy-miff”?).⁠ ⁠ Initially conceived in 2019, TWYMF is a series of free, artist-led potluck brunches held at Black Cube Headquarters (BCHQ, 2925 S Umatilla St, Fl 2, Englewood, CO). These seasonal meals are intended to build community among artists and arts enthusiasts in a casual, convivial, and connective setting. Free + open to the public with RSVP (link in bio).⁠ ⁠ Across four Sundays in April and May, 11am—1pm, each brunch will celebrate one artist from the Denver area. Featured artists shape the gathering in two ways: by choosing an ingredient for a main potluck dish prepared by a local chef, and by leading an activity designed to foster groupwide conversation. Participants are invited to bring a dish as well (bonus points if it relates to the artist-chosen ingredient!), though not required.⁠ ⁠ April 12—Alvin Gregorio (@offf_leash )⁠ April 26—Esther Hernandez (@esther.hz )⁠ May 3—Apple Hultz (@hultzbanana )⁠ May 17—Rafael Fajardo (@pixelspline )⁠ ⁠ Stay tuned as we announce ingredients/activities in the coming weeks!⁠
