Program Description

Event Details

Don't miss the unveiling of this historic exhibit featuring aerial photographs chronicling the development of northeastern Colorado Springs from when East Library was built. See the striking contrast of a time when East Library stood at the city's eastern edge — a geographic boundary that has since shifted. 

At the event, enjoy an interactive presentation that delves deeper into the exhibition's stories and introduces Regional History & Genealogy's new Digital Collections platform, which provides enhanced access to regional photos and other historic materials.
