We are at it again! We have recently teamed up with Prospect Place Lofts to offer you the chance to win a 2007 Dream Italia tour. This is a land package including 7 nights of accommodations, guided tours, group transportation and 2 meals per day, airfare not included, valued at approximately $3,000. Please see the complete promotion rules.

To mark this occasion and introduce Prospect Place, an Italian themed urban neighborhood, we will be throwing a Piazza Party Wednesday nights in September. Prospect Place is located in LoDo next to the Flour Mill where Italians first settled over 120 years ago.

This fun, jazzy party is a paid event to raise much needed funding for jazz89 KUVO, while you enjoy wine, appetizers and jazz music. Space is limited, so register today to secure your spot.
