About this Event

We will meet at Centennial House and walk through "Original Aurora" to Colfax Ave. Colfax has been the heart of Aurora since the 1890s and has gone through many changes over the years. Stops on this walk include the Hornbein Building, Fire Station 1, Riviera Motel, Fox Theater, the People's Building, and Mango House.

This walk is about 2 miles with frequent stops with content written for adults.

History Hikes are monthly opportunities May through October to learn about Aurora while outside.
