A Brief History of the Pipe Organ in Colorado

At each site we will hear about the history and architecture of the church and be delighted by a pipe organ demonstration. Attendance is limited to 50 people to maintain proper social distancing at these large venues. Tickets must be purchased in advance through the Historic Denver website.
