If your group is 7-years-old or younger, you’ll explore our a.MAZE.d exhibit and learn about famous mazes throughout history. If you’re older, you’ll see what makes Boulder, Boulder in the Boulder Experience, an interactive exhibit that tells the history of our city and invites you to participate in it!
