Getting your fall flu vaccine is a crucial step in protecting your health and the health of those around you. In addition to reducing your chances of getting the flu, the vaccine also helps lessen the severity of symptoms if you do get sick. By getting vaccinated, you are not only safeguarding yourself but also contributing to the overall community immunity. It is a simple, proactive measure that can make a significant difference in keeping everyone healthy during the fall and winter months.
The best time to receive a flu vaccine is typically in the early fall, before the flu season begins. It is recommended to get vaccinated before the end of October, as it takes about two weeks for the vaccine to provide full protection. It’s important to consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best timing for getting your flu vaccine based on your individual circumstances and any pre-existing health conditions.

The Victoria Tavern building was constructed in 1900 by Mildred “ Millie” Ohmertz Johnson. Some consider her as Colorado’s first Female real estate developer. During the first 9 years the Building served the young and booming railroad community as a butcher shop, movie theater, mercantile and hotel, until eventually ending up as a tavern in 1909. For 115 years the “Vic” was a place where not all were welcome, as a brothel, and rough and tumble tavern full of railroad men and miners it developed a lurid reputation keeping the “respectable” folk away. In the 1980s Peter Simonson took over the bar and ran it as a bar and music venue until 2020. Now after being closed for 4 years we are excited to re- open the doors to the community. While paying homage to history, with your help, we intend to create an inviting and welcoming place for everyone. A Social House. A Public House. A Community House. So welcome to The Victoria Tavern and we encourage you to share in the stewardship of this legendary tavern as we cultivate the next century of history here together.

Housed in a beautifully remodeled late-19th-century building in Salida’s Historic District, the Museum of Authenticity is an intimate museum of art & culture. Set against a backdrop of art created for art’s sake and handmade utilitarian objects that are—indisputably—works of art, MoA seeks to inspire the visitor’s own bold adventures in art and life. Founding director and curator, Thordis Niela Simonsen, taught biology and cultural anthropology before immersing in the visual and literary arts, restoring a roofless Greek village house stone by stone by hand, and creating the Museum, which opened in 2020.
The Museum of Authenticity’s changing exhibits juxtapose works from two collections: Thordis’ works on paper, including monotype prints, paintings, graphics, and photographs; and early- to mid-20th-century works on paper, primarily by Colorado and New Mexico artists and including youth, women, and unknown artists.
