Join the CSPM to critically reflect on the meaning of and connections to the commemoration of the America 250/Colorado 150 anniversaries. In 2026, how can we make sense of the 250 years since the Declaration of Independence, and 150 years of Colorado statehood? Join a knowledgeable guide on this 90-minute, approximately 1-mile walking tour, exploring how we have marked time throughout the history of Colorado Springs. Consider different regional anniversaries through the built environment and reflect on your own memories and observations of important events and dates.
This tour begins and ends at The Mining Exchange Hotel (8 S. Nevada Ave.) Choose from two options:
• 9:30 - 11:00 a.m. ($10) - Please plan to meet in the hotel lobby at least 10 minutes early to check-in, or earlier if you would like to order a beverage from the hotel's coffee shop Blk Mgk (not included in ticket price).
• 2:00 - 3:30 p.m. - plus 30 minutes for the cocktail ($15) 21+ ONLY - Note that this experience includes a custom cocktail from the Mining Exchange Hotel's bar, Golden Hour. Please plan for an additional 30 minutes at the end of the tour for the cocktail.
