FROST: Supper Talks

FROST (Front Range Objectivist Supper Talks) brings nationally known and respected Objectivist speakers to Denver several times per year for delicious dinners and stimulating lectures on a variety of topics. Anyone is welcome to attend these special events, including people unfamiliar with Objectivism.

FROST Supper Talks are usually held on Saturday evenings at the West Woods Golf Club in Arvada, Colorado. The event begins at 6:00 pm with socializing (with a cash bar), then a buffet dinner is served at 7:00 pm, and the lecture (with question period) begins at 8:00 pm. The cost is usually $60 per person and $35 for students. About forty to fifty people attend each FROST Supper Talk. Space is limited, so reserve your place sooner rather than later!

If you would like to help students attend these lectures, please e-mail FROST Manager Kelly Valenzuela at kelly@frontrangeobjectivism.com.
