  • A Pdf of the Tour
    Welcome to Historic Denver’s Molly Brown House Museum! Together we will explore this home and the story of a woman you may know as “Molly.” The true story however of Margaret Tobin Brown reveals a leader and activist whose lasting legacy shows the impact we all can have when we rally a community around a common cause. Another person in this house’s history who left behind a legacy is Art Leisenring, the owner of this House of Lions in the 1960s. When it came time for Art to move on, he worried that if he put 1340 Pennsylvania up for sale, it would be torn down like other houses on the block. In a grassroots effort, he gathered community members and together they founded Historic Denver, Inc. to save and restore the Molly Brown House. 50 years on, Historic Denver continues to own and operate the Molly Brown House Museum. And, as a leading preservation organization, we advocate on behalf of the diverse places and spaces all around the city. We know that historic places and the history they reveal can inspire us to take collective action today and ensure a better future for all; a vison shared, no doubt, by Art Leisenring and Margaret Brown. Enjoy your tour and thank you for supporting Historic Denver! Page 1 of 19 Exhibit Introduction This year we celebrate Historic Denver’s 50th anniversary of preserving the places that matter at its first save – the Molly Brown House Museum! Through an in-house exhibit, Looking Forward / Looking Back, you’ll learn about the work undertaken to restore each room, find treasures that tell the Brown family story, and meet the founders of Historic Denver.

  • All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION and KEY
    All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION AND KEY This report is a list of all grants awarded by the Colorado Historical Society’s State Historical Fund (SHF) since its inception in 1992 (state Fiscal Year 1993) through the end of Fiscal Year 2020. The amounts listed are the original award amounts. If for some reason the entire grant amount was not used (i.e. a project was terminated or was completed under budget) the full amount awarded will appear. In other instances grant awards were increased either to enable project completion or to cover the costs of easements. In these instances, the additional award amount is shown in a separate entry as an increase. In those cases where no work was accomplished and the funds were either declined by the grant recipient or were required to be returned to the SHF through rescissions, no entry will appear. For this reason, projects listed in one version of this report may not appear in later versions, and the financial information shown in this report may not be comparable to other revenue reports issued by the SHF. Grants listed in this report are identified by project ID number. The first two characters in the project ID number represent the fiscal year from which the grant was scheduled to be paid. The state is on a July 1 – June 30 fiscal year. So, for example, all grants made between July 1, 2006 and June 30, 2007 will be coded “07”. The next two characters identify the type of grant. In the case of grants that are awarded based on specific application due dates, the grant round in which the project was funded will be paired with either a letter or number.

  • 2017 Preliminary Conference Program Photo: VISIT DENVER Western Altitude / Western Attitude
    Photo: VISIT DENVER MPMA Regional Museum Conference 64th Annual MPMA Conference October 15 - October 19 | Denver, CO Photo: ToddPowell Photo Credit VISITDENVER 2017 Preliminary Conference Program Photo: VISIT DENVER Western Altitude / Western Attitude Photo: VISIT DENVER Photo: VISIT DENVER/Steve Crecelius Western Altitude / Western Attitude Join in the conversation: #MPMA2017 Why Museums Are Needed Now More Than Ever Photo: VISIT DENVER/Steve Crecelius Invitation from the MPMA Conference Chairs Dear Colleagues and Friends: Join us this fall in Denver, Colorado…where the Rocky Mountains meet the Great Plains. What an appropriate place for the 2017 annual meeting of the Mountain-Plains Museums Association (MPMA), an organization where the museums of the mountains and plains come together. And MPMA even had its origins in this area. Here you will discover Western Altitudes and Western Attitude at our museums, historic sites, and within our people. John Deutschendorf was so impressed by Denver that he took it as his last name, becoming one of Colorado’s beloved balladeers, singing about our altitudes and our attitudes. John Denver wasn’t alone in his attraction to the area; millions have been rushing to the state since gold was discovered in 1859. What you will discover during our conference is that Denver is not just a single city but an entire region offering many great cultural resources as well as great scenic beauty. Our evening events will capitalize on the best that the Denver area has to offer. The opening event will be hosted in the heart of Denver by History Colorado, site of exhibits about Colorado’s history (including “Backstory: Western American Art in Context,” an exciting collaboration with the Denver Art Museum), and by the Clyfford Still Museum, where the works and life of one of the fathers of abstract expressionism are exhibited.
