This turned out to be a really great museum and I strongly recommend a visit. The Sandy Creek exhibit was very powerful and a gut punch, especially once you read the letters of Federal officers who refused to participate and documented in detail the atrocities. The exhibits on Ute, Arapaho & Cheyenne peoples were written from the perspective of and curated by the native people and shared vibrant cultures and history. The exhibits on silver mining (recommend closing the sliding gates and experiencing the mine "elevator" as you enter this exhibit), Japanese internment (take a moment to sit in the cabin), a Black-American holiday resort and Colorado, especially Denver's, evolution and development were also fascinating.

Fun for the whole family.

Air conditioning. Quiet spaces. Open spaces. History Colorado galore.

I love it here. There is a diverse, multicultural and more feel here. From exhibits, artifacts, photography and artwork, Colorado history comes alive.

I seriously plead for you to visit. You'll be glad you did. Support local museums. This is right in the city.

Really enjoyed my time here. Exhibits are well thought out and incredibly informative. I learned a lot and saw some dope artifacts.

My favorite exhibit was the one about the Sandy Creek Massacre. Absolutely gut-wrenching to read the perspectives from both soldiers and survivors. I'm happy the museum does such a good job of representing what happened.
