Everyone is talking about the premiere screening of Centennial Statehouse: Colorado’s Greatest Treasure. Havey Productions invites you to join us for the big event at the Colorado Convention Center on February 3rd. Details here
Here is a great video of Jim’s appearance on Colorado and Company discussing the upcoming premiere of Centennial Statehouse: Colorado’s Greatest Treasure.
On Sunday, January 8, 2012 at 7:00PM MT, Havey Productions’ documentary, Broomfield: Spirit of the American Dream will air for the first time on Rocky Mountain PBS. Add this event to your calendar.
At the dawn of the twentieth century settlers and ranchers in the Broomfield area were drawn to the hilly land away from the growing cities for its clean air, expansive vistas and country charm. These same qualities inspired suburban pioneers in the 1950s to create a unique development on this land, featuring streets curved to the rolling contours of Broomfield Heights. Broomfield’s story reveals how Colorado’s first Master Planned Community — the city by the turnpike — embodied the new spirit of the American dream.
Add Broomfield: Spirit of the American Dream to your DVD collection.
The national film premiere of Centennial Statehouse: Colorado’s Greatest Treasure will be on February 3rd, 2012 at 6:00PM at the Colorado Convention Center. Tickets are now available.

This beautiful new film from Havey Productions is a celebration of Colorado and tells the story of the Colorado Capitol: The people who built the building – the building that built the State. Tickets are limited and are expected to sell out. Get your tickets now.
The oldest house in Denver is not in Denver precisely, but four miles to the Southeast along Cherry Creek, at the present day intersection of East Exposition Ave. and S. Forest St. Built in 1859, the house soon became the last stop for stage coaches on their way into Denver. It was here that travelers would dust off and freshen up before making their grand entrance into the Queen City of the Plains.
Since then the house has been a wayside inn, the living quarters of a 600 acre ranching operation, and finally the center of Four Mile Historic Park, a living slice of Denver’s frontier-town past, preserved so the we can experience our shared history.
Just in time for the Holidays, Havey Productions is proud to announce the release of The Try: Reclaiming the American Dream on DVD. This inspiring film tells the stories of ordinary individuals who have accomplished extraordinary things, and shows its viewers how they can do it too.
The film is based on a book by James P. Owen, and when you buy The Try on DVD, you get the book along with it. Together, this book and DVD set are the perfect gift for anyone who has a dream.
As the holiday season approaches, and we reflect on the year past and one to come, dream big, work hard, and use The Try to achieve the extraordinary.

In the early 1970′s, Denver was hungry for profitable annexed land at the edges of its sprawling suburbs. To stop it, Freda Poundstone led a suburban coalition to adopt a controversial amendment to the Colorado Constitution, dividing Denver from its metropolitan neighbors.
As a result, Denver’s growth switched direction from out, to up. In the years that followed, skyscrapers soared out of downtown, transforming the face of the city into what we know today.
There is a new face in the Havey Productions line-up. We want to extend a warm welcome to Alysha Havey, the new Associate Producer at Havey Productions. Alysha comes to us from several years working in international health and education organizations, and brings with her not only great production skills, but also issue-expertise that will contribute greatly to an expanded portfolio of Havey Productions films in coming months and years.
