The Aztlan remains"one of my favorite places in Denver," McGee says."Not only because of its beauty, retro charm and its rich, storied history, but because Tim and Aurora welcome everyone with open arms and treat strangers like family. Tim and Aurora are some of the kindest and most generous folks out there."Of all the things that make the Aztlan special, the Correas are the heart. Now in their eighties, they have been operating the theater since purchasing it in 1972.
Timeo was job hunting when he learned the building then called the Santa Fe Theatre was for sale. He bought it on his birthday, on December 19, 1972, after receiving a loan from the Small Business Administration. He opened it as the Aztlan Theatre in January 1973, and screened second-run 35mm movies for the next decade, while also offering the space for food drives, community events, activist gatherings and more.
"We're under the gun here," Timeo says."We've done our part. It's time to let go, we feel we have to do that. We still love the place. We love that we're working, we're in movement doing some of these various adventures, but it's time to say goodbye to something we've had our heart and soul in for a very long time."McGee, meanwhile, is hopeful that the Caracol Productions and KGNU fundraising event will help.
