Cute seating area for kids
Claire L.

This is such a family friendly library! They offer several story times for different age groups - baby, toddler and preschool so everyone gets in on the fun! I've been coming here for a while and my little girls loves to browse the kids section. Additionally, they offer various special events for kids throughout the year. The staff is very friendly. Highly recommend this library!

A fabulous bookstore with proceeds benefiting Jefferson County Public Library. Nice selection of…read moreused books in good condition, some new books, priced very reasonably. Also, gifts, and other media such as DVDs, audiobooks and vinyl records. Located in Colorado Mills shopping center next to Dick's Sporting Goods. You can donate books at their Wheatridge warehouse or volunteer your time.

My brother-in-law-in-law comes here frequently to get books for his three year old, as they have a…read morenice selection of kid's books. We were tagging along with him while in CO visiting, and since my husband and I both enjoy reading, we happily dove into browsing the aisles for ourselves too. Upon entering, we were readily approached by an employee who wanted to help us find what we might be looking for, guiding us to our respective areas. I was after queer nonfiction, which they didn't really have unfortunately, but they did have a whole queer fiction section, and I got one of the more promising looking books. My husband managed to find not one but three books for himself on the subject of various religions he's been wanting to study (one of his current hyperfixations). They also had CDs, DVDs, even a few VHSes (hooray for a resurgence of analog media, amirite?), puzzles/games, and trinkets/gifts. Beyond the helpfulness and friendliness of the employee, I liked what this place IS at its heart. Because all purchases help fund the local library's children's literacy program, and they also accept public donations. So basically, a WAY BETTER place to source books than say Barnes & Noble (or god forbid, Amazon *barfs*). Support independent bookstores like this one! I also liked their color-coded dot system. Everything here is on a big discount from MSRP, but depending on what color dot sticker is on it, the bigger the discount. So it adds a fun little element to your shopping experience of how much you're saving but also the feel-good of supporting a good cause at the same time. Win-win!

The good news about Red Rocks Community College is that it is pretty inexpensive. The problem is…read morethat they are not too sensitive to certain diversity issues. For instance, as a neurodivergent individual, I complained about too much noise in the library (which is mostly empty, with the exception of a couple of very loud librarians and maybe one person playing video games or chatting on their cellphone). A bunch of administrators started yelling at me (almost threatening to expel me) when I complained that the library was too loud. When I tried to make an appointment with the head librarian, he didn't show up for the meeting on time and did not answer my emails. Although the school talks a big game about diversity, there are no elevators for people with disabilities. I took a class in which the male instructor kept using the word "Karen" to refer to older ladies. I thought that seemed a little sexist. Overall, it did not feel very professional. I was not too comfortable at this school. They need to think more carefully about how to accommodate neurodiverse people and individuals with disabilities. It also feels like there are too many administrators and not enough decently paid instructors who have the time to create decent lesson plans.

These were originally presented on the basement walls surrounding the Department's classrooms and offices, but more recently a formal art gallery has been created in the spaces surrounding the Community Room. This is immediately to your right as you go in the main entrance to the College. The new gallery is quite nice. There's a long, rectangular space and also a rotunda-like area immediately outside the Community Room. Be sure you go through the double doors at the rear of the front gallery to get into the second space. The gallery is open during all campus hours. Occasionally the rear doors are locked, but if you call Campus Security, they will be happy to let you in. The gallery presents student work, but also shows featuring the Lakewood community interspersed with material of regional and sometimes greater significance. It's a bit of a drive for me, but the campus is pretty and a visit to the gallery makes for a relaxing afternoon.

My family and I visited yesterday with the Jeffco raise the reader program and we had so much fun…read more Oh my goodness I can't believe I've never been before my kids really enjoyed the train ride and being able to go in and look at all the different trains my husband had fun time talking to the super friendly and knowledgeable conductors and I was just happy to be out of the house. This was truly a jam and we will definitely be back.

BRING QUARTERS!!!…read more Overall the experience was pretty okay. I think the replica train should just be running nonstop rather than taking quarters. Or they should take some tokens that they just provide. I hate being "nickeled and dimed". That being said, i do think .25 is at least a defensible number. The staff that was at checkout when the museum was closing left a sour note in the experience last night. I saw a book I wanted to buy my 3 year old son when we first arrived. I told him we would grab it on the way out. On the way out we were looking around the shop and I grabbed the book. The girl at the checkout gleefully shouted "it's 5:00 we're officially closed." We were directly in front of her. I asked if that meant that we couldn't purchase the book and she smiled back smuglly that we couldn't. So this girl watched me walk around with my 3 year old son looking at items in their store grab a book I told him I would buy him and didn't say one word about closing soon and to hurry if I wanted the item, then she smiled at us, almost taking joy in disappointing him. I've debated whether two stars was too low because overall the experience wasn't awful and we went on a free day! But that checkout girl really left such a negative impression that it changed the whole experience.
