The weather outside may be dreary, but the spring schedule is keeping us busy and filling us full of all the good Denton vibes. Y'all are proving how great our city is over and over again with your awesome use of creative talents. It's getting tougher these days to narrow it down to the top 10, but we think this is a great 'problem' to have. Keep the good times coming, and make sure to get out there and support all of the good that's happening!

Read MoreKUZUTHON!
Clear your afternoon and evening plans for Kuzu's first official fundraiser, "Kuzuthon: Pink Moon," an event named after the full moon happening the night of April 22nd, which historically harbors the appearance of pink moss, one of the first spring flowers. You could also say it might say it marks the blossoming of Denton's new LPFM radio station, KUZU 92.9, which is aiming to capture the essence of our local music scene all in one place. While KNTU 88.1, "The One," will always be a local favorite, it focuses largely on representing jazz and classical music without touching on the overwhelming amount of amazing and unique music coming from our small town. Read on to find out more about Kuzu and Kuzuthon!

Read MoreTHE SCIENCE GUY WAS IN DENTON
As part of the Distinguished Lecture Series, the one and only Bill Nye the Science Guy graced Denton with his presence in the UNT coliseum, to have a chat about all things science, with a few thousand students on Wednesday night. Covering topics such as sundials, global warming, and rovers on Mars, Bill entertained and educated, just the way we remember his afternoon show as children of the 90’s. We've gathered a few fun facts shared by that Bunsen burner toting, bow-tie wearing scientist who believes that “the joy of discovery is the essence of science” just for you, so that you can keep reliving the science-y goodness all weekend.
