The tables are turning.

For this special b’Earth Day celebration – eTown’s 35th – eTown founder Nick Forster steps out of his usual role as interviewer and joins his wife Helen in the guest seat.

To mark this 35th anniversary, acclaimed NPR journalist Lakshmi Singh takes the interviewer’s chair for a live conversation with Nick and Helen as they answer the questions this time. What does it take to build something that lasts? What have they learned along the way? And what comes next for eTown?

For years, Nick has been one of our preeminent interviewers, and for this milestone evening, the format flips, offering a rare chance to hear eTown’s founders reflect on the journey behind one of Boulder’s most beloved cultural institutions.

The evening will also include a short eTown video retrospective, and we’ll wrap up the celebration with cake as we toast 35 years of eTown.

Arrive early and stay after to connect with fellow members of the eTown community. The eTown Café will be open with beer, wine, cocktails and sweet and savory bites available for purchase.

Whether you’ve been part of eTown since the beginning or are discovering it for the first time, this is a night to celebrate together and hear from the founders themselves about this fascinating story that is eTown.

It’s three and a half decades of music, ideas and community – and we can’t wait to celebrate it with you.

A limited number of VIP tickets are available, offering access to an intimate pre-show reception with special guests and a chance to gather and celebrate 35 years of eTown in a more personal setting.
