Our community includes more than 250 dues-paying members, many corporate members, a year-round professional staff of eleven, over 100 volunteers and a Board of Directors.
We serve more than 30,000 visitors a year at our three sites. We welcome families, tourists, history buffs, summer campers, curious folks and groups of all kinds. In addition to scout groups and senior groups, we share Colorado history with 2,800 school students every year.
Golden History Museums connects people to the history of Golden, Colorado, through innovative exhibits, dynamic programs and historic collections. We strive to foster a sense of place and build community by being the leading source for local history.
Golden History Museums (formerly Friends of the Astor House Museum & Clear Creek History Park) have successfully managed and operated the Astor House Museum and Clear Creek History Park since 1998. In 2009 we started managing the Golden History Center (formerly the Golden Pioneer Museum). Golden History Museums is a federally recognized 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization. All three museum sites are owned by the City of Golden, which contracts with Golden History Museums to manage, provide programming for and care for the three sites. The City provides management oversight through its Parks and Recreation Department.
We focus on artifacts that relate to the Golden and surrounding area. They range from Native American to the Victorian era. We also have a temporary exhibit area that is changed twice a year.
We have genealogical books and books that pertain to the Golden area
We offer workshops, a docent program and gallery tours. Tours are $1.00 per person.
