From Mesa Verde to the Dust Bowl, discover the important role water has
played in Colorado history—and the environmental challenges we face
today. Students work in small groups to explore History Colorado exhibits,
solve STEM and geography challenges, and evaluate the ways different
communities have used water. The program is designed for middle school
earth science and geography classes, and can be adapted for upper
elementary and high school students.
From kindergartners to high school seniors, students love our immersive
and experiential exhibits and programs that explore the state’s history,
people and environment while aligning with curriculum standards across
multiple disciplines. Core exhibits at the History Colorado Center include
Colorado Stories, Destination Colorado, Denver A to Z and Living West.
