Take 11 East Colfax-area restaurants, mix in 600 to 750 hungry neighbors, add a delightful June evening and you have…. the Fabulous Fourth Annual Feast on The FAX.
On June 9, 2009 from 5 to 9 p.m., The FAX Partnership’s Feast on The FAX, gives attendees the chance to sample cuisines ranging from Moroccan, Mexican, Ethiopian, and American. Participants will enjoy samples at all of the featured restaurants, and may walk, bike, or ride free shuttle buses back and forth along The FAX.
Goal
The Feast on The FAX was created by The FAX Partnership to promote businesses on Colfax while providing residents of the surrounding neighborhoods and beyond an opportunity to become better acquainted (or re-acquainted) with the diverse restaurant base along East Colfax, now known as The FAX.
The event is presented in cooperation with Park Hill, Bellevue-Hale, Mayfair, and Montclair neighborhood associations. The Boards of these five neighborhood associations will be selling tickets to The Feast on The FAX and sharing in the proceeds from those ticket sales. Ticket sales not only help The FAX Partnership, with its annual fundraising event, but also help advance the mission of these five great neighborhood associations.
Participants
Restaurants that have signed up this year include: Solera, The Cork House, Mataam Fez, Phoenician Kabob, Krameria Cafe, Senor Pepe’s, Habesha, Mozart Lounge & Piano Bar, The Elm, Queen of Sheba, and Africana Café.
The FAX Partnership is committed to revitalizing Colfax Avenue from Colorado Boulevard to Yosemite Street. Its mission is to restore Denver’s historic Main Street by establishing a vibrant, destination district. It seeks to do so by implementing long-term programs focused on economic and community development, crime prevention, small business improvement, corridor outreach and marketing.
