The PACE Center for the Arts rounds out the calendar with performances, classes, and exhibits throughout the year. There's something happening in downtown Parker nearly every week.
This week in Parker: Weekly Reset Walking Club with RNK Running at RNK Running and Walking on Tuesday, Tuesday Trivia Night at Takoda Tavern at Takoda Tavern on Tuesday, and Game Night & Poker with Lacey Rupert at Studio@Mainstreet at Studio@Mainstreet on Tuesday. Full list below.

PACE Center for the Arts (performances, exhibits, and community events), Tailgate Tavern & Grill (weekly live music and trivia nights), Takoda Tavern (live music and karaoke), The Schoolhouse (boutique events and community gatherings).
What you'll find: Parker's calendar is strongest in family and community events, built around Parker Days Festival, the farmers market season, and the concert series at Discovery Park. Live music nights at Tailgate Tavern and Takoda Tavern anchor the weekly nightlife. The PACE Center brings consistent arts and culture programming, making Parker one of the more well-rounded small-city calendars in the county.
