🧠✨ Our Quarterly THOUGHT LEADERS Series Returns with the Incomparable Jeff Fierberg.

The Cornell Club of Colorado’s THOUGHT LEADERS series exists to accelerate curiosity, convene influential minds, and explore the ideas shaping culture, community, and global citizenship.

These evenings are designed as catalysts — where journalism meets creativity, scholarship meets lived experience, and where intellectually curious people gather to connect across disciplines. On March 19, we welcome a voice who embodies that spirit in every frame he captures.

WHEN: Thursday, March 19 | 6:00PM
WHERE: Denver Press Club // 1330 Glenarm Place // Denver, Colorado 80204
(Adjacent parking available)
WHAT: 🍸 AN EVENING FOR THE CULTURALLY CURIOUS
Founded in 1867, the Denver Press Club is America’s oldest press club — a step back in time and one of Denver’s most beloved institutions. The space itself is transporting: intimate, storied, textured, and perfect for conversation that lingers.
This will be a delicious, thought-provoking evening for community builders, culinary explorers, journalists, creatives, and anyone who believes food tells stories worth listening to. Jeff will share his extraordinary travel and eating/drinking journeys that helped make this must-have book a reality and talk more about his life as a food and beverage photojournalist and tastemaker (his knowledge of the Colorado restaurant and hospitality landscape is encyclopedic and more than worth the price of admission)

🎟 $10 – Admission + light snacks
🎟 $22 – Admission + light snacks + an exquisite cocktail crafted by Jeff in partnership with a Vietnamese distillery

Jeff will personally craft the cocktail experience. Expect something layered, intentional, and most importantly, delicious!

WHY: The THOUGHT LEADERS series is about more than speakers.
It is about convening minds who influence.
It is about creating spaces where ideas cross-pollinate.
It is about elevating cultural literacy and building community through generous curiosity.
Jeff Fierberg is exactly the kind of voice this moment calls for.
⚡ Don’t Delay- Seats are limited.
Join us March 19. Bring a friend. Bring your curiosity.
