MCA & The Lab merge--new lectures

The Museum of Contemporary Art|Denver (featured on page 23 of my Moon Denver guidebook) has merged with the Lab, an independent arts workshop space from the suburb of Lakewood. On June 5 they will begin their first collaboration at the Museum: Mixed Taste: Tag Team Lectures on Unrelated Topics. One speaker discusses a topic for 30 minutes, the next speaker does his bit on a completely different topic and then it's opened up to a slightly confusing but definitely interesting Q & A. June 5 will feature Mayor John Hickenlooper & Kirk Johnson of the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, with the topics "Show Tunes & Aquatic Plants." OK, I admit it, now I want to go.
