Final preparations are being made for the Grand Opening celebration this weekend.

The one- and three-dimensional Inuit art has been installed and looks beautiful. We hope you can all make it as the day is shaping up the be an amazing time. The NBC affiliate KUSA will be broadcasting live from the museum on Saturday morning and radio station KCUV will also be on-site. Just a few more days before the nation’s first museum devoted to mountaineering opens its doors. Please join us!

The Bradford Washburn American Mountaineering Museum grand opening is the weekend of February 16th & 17th. Please join us for speakers, films, events, and, of course, the museum. See our events section of the site for more information.
