YOU’RE INVITED, JOIN THE ARCADE at the Poor Richard’s Block Party!
Sunday, May 3rd | 2-6 PM | The Block Will Be CLOSED OFF for the Fun!
After 51 incredible years, it’s time to celebrate. Richard and Patricia have poured their hearts into Poor Richard’s since 1975 - building something that’s been more than a business, it’s been a cornerstone of the Colorado Springs downtown community. On May 3rd, we’re throwing a block party to honor their legacy AND introduce the next chapter: meet Sarah and Joe, the new owners carrying this place forward with the same love it deserves.

Come join us for:
🎵 Live music with Tejon Street Corner Thieves and Grapefruit Moon
🌿 Meadowgrass Music Festival vibes
🗑️ Richard Rubbish Roundup in the mix
🎭 Millibo bringing the fun
❤️ Together for Colorado Springs - because that’s what this is all about!

Meet the team from The Catalyst Fund, the operating foundation making legacy business transitions like this one possible, and hear about the meaningful work they do to keep community institutions alive. You’ll also get to meet the Tubby’s Turnaround team, also part of the Catalyst family, and celebrate their journey too.

🎁 Swag bags for the first 400 guests — don’t be late!
🍴 Food & drinks | 🎶 Music all afternoon | 💛 Good people
The block closes at 2 PM - come early, stay late, and bring everyone you know.
Tag the Poor Richard’s fans in your life. 👇
