ISKCON Denver - Denver, CO

From the website:

Hare Krishna devotees first lived in Nederland, Colorado and moved down to Denver in 1971, where they inhabited the basement level of an African-American Protestant Church on 1400 Cherry Street. The Protestants inhabited the upper lever and Hare Krishnas in the basement level. At some point the Protestants moved out and the Hare Krishnas made the whole building their temple. Srila Prabhupada, founder-acharya of ISKCON, visited in 1975 for a week. In 1976, ISKCON of Colorado was incorporated.

ISKCON Denver temple is presently considered the home-base temple for congregations and groups of devotees in neighboring towns and cities including Longmont, Fort Collins, Boulder, and Colorado Springs. ISKCON Denver temple maintains daily high-standard Deity worship, Radha Govinda’s restaurant (30 years in the Denver vegetarian scene), three weekly college programs, home programs, festivals, daily liturgical programs, and organic gardens.

ISKCON Denver community exists to facilitate sat-sanga (spiritually-based relationships) and teach Bhakti lifestyle to local people, according to the principles, values, and spirit that Srila Prabhupada delineates in his 7 principles of ISKCON.
