JoomlaDay Denver is the first-ever Joomla community event held in Colorado. Joomla is a popular and freely available open source content management system (CMS) platform. With tens of billions of downloads and extensive international support, Joomla powers millions of websites, intranets and internet applications around the world. Joomla is a 100 percent non-profit, volunteer-based organization, and hundreds of JoomlaDay events are organized annually by local communities around the world. The spirit of Joomla is community, and everyone is welcomed to contribute and participate.
Taking place on Saturday, October 1st at the Marriott Springhill Suites at MSU Denver on the Auraria Campus, JoomlaDay Denver features extensive resources for Joomla users along with a powerful line up of industry professionals covering a variety of modern internet topics.
The featured guest is Brad Frost, a sought-after web designer and consultant from Pittsburg, Pennsylvania.

He is a co-creator of Pattern Lab and contributes to many other popular open-source web design and internet community resources.
