It was Fun! I went with my 10 yr old daughter. Kelsi running the front desk was so Kind and Helpful! Joshua was so thoughtful and friendly helping us to take one of a kind pictures in the museum maximizing our visit.

Best for school-age kids and tweens who engage with optical tricks and love capturing shareable photos. Staff photo helpers make a real difference for families wanting memorable shots. Younger children enjoy the visuals, and the central 16th Street Mall location makes it easy to combine with a broader Denver day out.
