Set aside a couple of unhurried hours at Broken Shovels Farm Sanctuary to breathe a little deeper and share quiet space with rescued farm animals who choose connection in their own ways. Stroll through pens and pastures to meet residents from across 23 species, while caretakers and volunteers are nearby to introduce personalities, histories, and the small everyday moments that shape their lives. Every ticket helps provide lifelong sanctuary and veterinary-supported care for animals recovered from neglect, abuse, and abandonment. Pricing is kept intentionally low, with tickets available for $10 in advance or $15 at the gate, and EBT/SNAP guests welcomed with free admission when a card is presented. The sanctuary is reachable by public transportation, one block from the 88 bus line and about a 15 minute walk from rail service. For everyone’s safety and comfort, no outside food or drinks for people or animals are permitted. Tickets are non-refundable unless severe weather cancels the event. Plan to arrive on time, as hours cannot be extended for late arrivals. Every visitor requires a ticket, regardless of age. Any food or beverages offered on-site are sold separately. Companion animals are not allowed on the property or in vehicles. This is a refuge for animals, not a petting zoo. Move gently, respect boundaries, and allow the animals to decide how they interact. Some will approach, others may keep their distance, and both are equally respected. Many residents are older, healing, or living with chronic conditions, and their care prioritizes long-term wellbeing with veterinary guidance. The sanctuary is built on trust, and visitors help sustain that spirit with mindful, compassionate presence.

An immersive blend of intuitive art-making and calming sound invites an exploration of the inner landscape. Gentle meditation and resonant tones create a contemplative setting where imagination, intention, and inner vision can surface. Alongside a soothing sound bath, participants craft a mixed media collage, layering color, texture, and imagery to give form to what they are envisioning for themselves. Experience level does not matter, only a willingness to follow intuition and listen within. The environment encourages playfulness, honest feeling, and judgment-free creativity, allowing ideas to move from the inside out.

This annual ride pairs a trail outing in Thornton with a festive brewery celebration.

All funds benefit Food for Hope’s food programs and pantries throughout the semester.
