The main building is set up like a small town consisting of salon, drug store, dental office and more. Filled with authentic items. Then you walk outside to the outdoor town. Homes from many different years, school house, hotel, sheriffs office and many more. The kids will love it! So many items I'm sure they have never seen before. Such a wonderful educational experience. They do offer tours but not on the day we were there. The kind lady in the office said please come back to her if we had any questions. This is a must visit!

Lady at the desk asked if we wanted a guided tour and that it would be $15 (non-guided tours were…read more$13 but she didn't give us that option - we had to see that online after we left). We agreed but only got 15 minutes with a tour guide due to school groups. Wish they would've advised us that we wouldn't be getting the full experience and have a guide of the whole grounds. Bunch of different artifacts that doesn't go together and had no explanation of anything since we didn't have a tour guide. Founder was there and seemed rude to his staff.

Being antiquarian print collectors and art lovers, we spent much time browsing and chatting with Lucille. What a history there with her parents and Salvadore Dali, another artist that we collect! We could have spent hours chatting with Lucille. We purchased an Audubon edition print and of course, who could resist a gorgeous Salvadore Dali print to add to our collection. If you are ever in Gunnison, go out of your way to visit the gallery! With over 200,000 pieces to choose from, if you don't find something, I would be shocked!! Gunnison is very lucky to have this vault of world history in their little town! :)

I also like the knowledge you have installed in us. Like I had mention in my other review, I came to Aspen not knowing anything, and now here I am at work in San Diego, telling people all about the History of Aspen through your stories and the pictures I took on my phone. 5 stars all the way!
