More than 800 people poured into the historic Avalon Theatre in Grand Junction, Colo., Sunday night to view the first in Ken Burns' new six-part documentary series. The event coincided with the premiere of the film. Built in 1923, the Avalon Theatre remains one of Western Colorado's largest performing arts halls, and was a fitting setting for the series that captures some of nature's most spectacular locales. The Colorado National Monument, the Grand Junction VCB and REI co-sponsored the screening.
