The Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum presents the 2024 lecture series, featuring a wide range of speakers offering diverse perspectives and unique insights on Pikes Peak regional history. Admission is free, but registration is required.ABOUT THE PROGRAM
A new hardback, full-color book entitled, "Artus Van Briggle at Chico Basin Ranch" by Kathy Honea and Kenneth Talmadge Stacks, showcases the last five years of Artus' life. Much of the information provided by the descendants of the Holmes' family, original owners of the ranch; is shared here for the first time. Readers will see photos and read stories of Artus' last five years both at the ranch, and while developing his pottery until his untimely death in 1904.
