Denver's Four Mile Historic Park hosts traditional family egg hunt
Denver's Four Mile Historic Park will be bringing the community together for a traditional Easter Egg Hunt and family celebration. Each session with start out with a magic show. Then, there will be three separate egg hunts divided by age group; 3-years and younger, 4-year-olds to 6-year-olds, and 7-years and older. The session rounds out with a performance by the Animal Farm Band. In addition to the fund for kids, there are food trucks, a coffee cart, and a artisan market.
"In addition to it being an historic site and just being a gem in Denver, we're also part of Denver Parks and Rec, and just being part of the parks community, we feel like it's really our duty to put on some exciting community events," said Morgan Gengenbach, Director of Operations at Four Mile Historic Park.
Four Mile Historic Park is a throw back to Denver's Western heritage. The 12-acre park is a working farm and houses Denver's oldest standing structure, the Four Mile House Museum. Stepping onto the property is like stepping back in time to the mid to late 1800's when the first settlers will moving into the area. The park is open for guided tours, field trips, and outreach programs.
"When people can come and have a really exciting experience at an historic farm right in the middle of the city," Gengenbach explained.
Four Mile Historic Park also hosts a series of community events including the Family Egg Hunt, Bright Nights light display, and a Pumpkin Festival in the fall. In addition to all the fun activities at the Family Egg Hunt, the artisan market will open for a fun shopping experience.
"You can go to the market and get some really wonderful hand made gifts. If the Easter Bunny needs some help, we have some Easter baskets that are premade and really beautiful. Plus food trucks, we have barbeque coming. We've got coffee for the parents and family members that need a little pick-me-up in the morning," Gengenbach added.

Rescue African artifacts from colonizers' museums in the heist game Relooted
Relooted is a heist game about reclaiming African artifacts from the Western countries that stole them, developed by independent South African studio Nyamakop. Relooted is set in a future timeline where Western nations have signed a treaty to return plundered items to their African regions of origin, but things aren't going to plan. Western leaders are instead hiding the artifacts away in private collections, so it's up to a ragtag crew based in Johannesburg, South Africa, to strategize and steal them back. Relooted is broken into missions, and each one includes a briefing about the artifact, an infiltration planning stage, and the heist. Gameplay is a mix of puzzle and action as you case each building, set up your run, and then execute the plan. Once you grab your target artifact, the security alarms go off and you have a limited amount of time to escape, so thorough preparation is key. To view this content, you'll need to update your privacy settings. Please click here and view the "Content and social-media partners" setting to do so. In the Day of the Devs reveal video for Relooted , producer Sithe Ncube cites a wild statistic from a pivotal 2018 report on African cultural heritage, saying, "90 percent of sub-Saharan African culture heritage is in the possession of Western collections. That is millions upon millions of deeply important cultural, spiritual and personal artifacts, including human remains, that aren't in their rightful place." The locations in Relooted are fictional, but the 70 artifacts you have to steal back are real, and they're all currently in Western and private collections, far from their original homes and owners. Nyamakop is one of the largest independent games studios in sub-Saharan Africa, with about 30 developers working on Relooted right now. Its previous game, the globular platformer Semblance , was the first African-developed IP to ever come to a Nintendo console, hitting the Switch in 2018. In order to get Semblance on the Switch, Nyamakop co-founder Ben Myres had to bootstrap his way around the world, buying one-way tickets and finding new partners on the fly in a daisy chain of game festival appearances. Here's how Myres explained it to Engadget at E3 2018: "The entry curve into being an indie game developer in South Africa is like a cliff face. Because you don't have the contacts, the platform holders like Xbox, Sony. You don't have reps that live in your country. The press that matter are all here. There isn't a big enough market locally to sell to, so you have to make works to sell to the West, which means you have to go to Western shows and you have to meet Western press. So basically, if you're not traveling a ton, you're not going to be able to make it." Nyamakop has grown significantly since 2018, and Relooted is an unabashedly African game built by a majority-POC team, Myres and Ncube said in 2024. "There is the thing about making games for Africans — we say that a lot," Ncube told . "We say that should be a thing, we should make games for Africans because we're playing games that were made in the West. But will people even play those games, if you make them? And then if you make games targeting people ... even if you were to make one that's really good, there's no guarantee that you'll have a lot of people playing it. So I think there's some level of confusion, I can say, in terms of unexplored aspects of the African games market." Relooted is in development for Steam, the Epic Games Store and Xbox Series X/S, and while it doesn't yet have a firm release date, it's available to wishlist.

Julia Zilberquit Performance at Mozart Evenings Festival Draws Standing Ovations in Italy
Julia Zilberquit on stage of Teatro Marrucino at the Mozart Evenings concert From the 25th of May to the 4th of June 2025, the Italian city of Chieti, in the country's picturesque Abruzzo region, marked the much-anticipated return of Mozart Evenings, a grand festival celebrating the rich legacy and musical genius of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Organised by Konstantin Ishkhanov, its President, in collaboration with Artistic Director Giuliano Mazzoccante, this event marked the second edition of the festival, which has quickly established itself as a staple entry in the cultural calendar of the region. Hosted at the historic Teatro Marrucino, which has been named as one of Italy's Theatres of Tradition since 2003, this 2025 edition of Mozart Evenings featured a total of five classical concerts, bringing together a stunning lineup of international soloists, conductors, and orchestras in a celebratory homage to one of the greatest composers in Western music, including amongst them the celebrated US pianist Julia Zilberquit. Julia Zilberquit with the National Symphony Orchestra of Uzbekistan on stage of Teatro Marrucino A graduate of the Juilliard School, Zilberquit has earned critical acclaim as a recitalist, chamber musician and recording artist, being praised by the New York Times as 'an outstanding soloist' after one of her performances at Carnegie Hall. She has also performed at the 92nd Street Y, and the Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center, to mention a few, and has appeared at many major international music festivals including events in Seattle, Colmar (France), Klangbogen (Vienna), the Bard Music Festival in New York, and the Penderecki Festival (Poland). 'Mozart is of course a genius of all times', said Zilberquit, 'and I don't know what the world of classical music would be without him, I cannot imagine it! I'm so happy to be performing here in Chieti in this wonderful amazing Teatro Marrucino, and to be presenting this particular concerto – the Concerto in A minor No. 23, K. 488. In my opinion, it's one of the most beautiful piano concertos, not only from Mozart's oeuvre, but of all time, especially its second movement. It's very sad and very profound, and I think I'm lucky and we're lucky to be in the presence of such a genius piece tonight.' In addition to Zilberquit, the festival's concerts were headlined by such luminaries as pianists Cyprien Katsaris (Greece), Giuliano Mazzoccante (Italy), and Arsenii Moon (France), violinists Davide Alogna (Italy), Karen Shahgaldyan (Armenia), and Anna Tifu (Italy), clarinetist Vicente Alberola (Spain), flautist Tommaso Benciolini (Italy), and violist Giuseppe Russo Rossi (Italy). Moreover, audiences in Italy were also able to witness the talents of the AYSO Orchestra and the National Symphony Orchestra of Uzbekistan, who took to the stage under the direction of several acclaimed conductors, including Luis Andrade (Portugal), Alibek Kabdurakhmanov (Uzbekistan), Gianluca Marcianò (Italy), and Teresa Satalino (Italy). 'I'm very happy to have had the chance to work with the National Symphony Orchestra of Uzbekistan', Zilberquit added. 'It's a great experience, it was my first time collaborating with them, and with Maestro Gianluca Marcianò as well. We've known each other for a very, very long time, and we have always discussed working together, and today, this finally happened, so I'm very happy about that!' Through this remarkable gathering of artistic excellence, Mozart Evenings continued to fulfil its goal of honouring the rich legacy of the Austrian composer, while also celebrating Chieti's musical heritage and its role as a cultural hub for the region. Commenting about the organisation of the festival, Zilberquit took the time to highlight the work being carried out by the duo who spearheaded the event, stating that 'I have worked with Mr Konstantin Ishkhanov and Maestro Giuliano Mazzoccante several times, and it is always a great experience. The organisation is great, it's always top notch! We've done things together in Malta, we've done things together in Dubai, and I'm especially happy to be in Chieti because I was supposed to perform a solo concert here in the spring of 2020, and then the Covid-19 pandemic started. So, of course, this concert did not happen, but five years later here we are!' From left to right: Gianluca Marcianò, Julia Zilberquit, Konstantin Ishkhanov, Arsenii Moon Having met with widespread acclaim from the crowds that packed the sold-out Marrucino Theatre throughout its run, Mozart Evenings now turns its gaze towards the future once again, as Konstantin Ishkhanov looks to continue to bring the very best of classical music, presented by the top musicians of our time, to the stunning streets of Chieti for many more years to come.

Summer Outfits So Chic, You'll Want to Copy Them All
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. Don't look now, but summer is here, which means the time has come to showcase your hot-weather style with some fresh 'fits. Whether you plan to hit the beach with your crew or stay in with the A/C blasting, there's no reason you can't do it wearing something cute. If inspiration is lacking, you're in luck, I found the best casual summer outfit ideas out there, inspired by major celebrities like Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner and street style mavens alike. Stick to basics with an airy sundress and summer sandals or perhaps—if you're feeling newly inspired by the NBA playoffs—opt for something sporty like a summer tracksuit and heels. At the end of the day, a cute outfit can make all the difference (at least, that's what I believe!). Check out the stylish summer outfits you can all season long, below. When in doubt, you can never go wrong with a pair of jeans and a baby tee. Take notes from Kendall Jenner, who accessorized this classic combo with loafers and a baseball cap for an effortlessly cool and casual look you can wear on repeat. Jean shorts and summer just go together, and what better time to wear your favorites? Throw on your trusty Adidas Sambas, like Hailey Bieber, and your go-to denim jacket for when the temps start to dip, and you're set. Take a page from Bella Hadid and tap into the Western trend. Center your outfit around a pair of chic cowboy boots, and then style them with a fun graphic tee and cutoff shorts. You'll have a trend-worthy outfit ready in no time. Don't feel obligated to dress up if you're planning to lay low this summer. Sometimes, a sweatshirt and comfy sweatpants are the move. A monochromatic look like this one from Jennifer Lopez still looks put-together and elevated, even when you're in a loungewear set. I anticipate no regrets. An all-black ensemble is perfect for any occasion, including a barbecue or picnic. A romantic dress and ballet flats paired with a dainty necklace come together for an ensemble fit for a daytime outing. Feeling like a woman on the move? A lightweight tracksuit is just what's in order. And if you want to give it a fashion-girl twist, style it with this season's trending aviator sunglasses and a pair of metallic sandals. Sports jerseys are trending for summer—and if you're looking for an unexpected way to style yours, consider a cute bubble skirt. Spice things up with metallic accessories, and I guarantee you'll be primed for a post on the grid. For something that feels casual but still elevated, consider a fitted cardigan paired with Bermuda shorts. Polished details like ballet flats and a leather designer bag will take things up a level. Nothing beats the heat quite like a sundress, which makes it a great option for your summer uniform. It's easy, effortless, and chic—not to mention versatile. Wear it to dinner alfresco or for your neighborhood barbecue. This is a staple that can be as dressed up or down as you want it. No doubt, a long black skirt is the most underrated MVP of your everyday wardrobe. For a go-to look, you can wear again and again, opt for a denim jacket, a classic white T-shirt, and easy flats (like the ones shown here, in the ever-popular butter yellow hue). It's a classy and casual look that'll work for nearly any summer occasion.
