We have made numerous trips to Estes Park and every time, we stop in at Images of Rocky Mountain National Park. Not only are the images beautiful, but the owner has hiked all of the trails in RMNP. We've picked up several prints and books as well as trail recommendations. Highly recommended.

This is not a "souvenir" shop. They sell handmade items (bowls, mugs, etc), jewelry, and art, primarily made by local artisans. The offerings are beautiful! Some of the items are rather expensive, though there is a wide range of prices. I was looking for a piece of art and as soon as I saw it I was in love. I purchased a small framed oil painting by an artist who is quite local and the lady managing the shop wrapped it with much care and included a sheet of information about the artist (Jennifer Cline).

I have been going to this lovely shop since I was a kid. It's the best glass studio there is! The artists are so kind and helpful and their art is creative, thoughtful and fun. If you are looking for a small piece or a larger, stand-out piece you can find both and everything in between. It's one of my favorite stops in Estes Park. Thank you for creating such inspiring and memorable pieces of art to share with all!

This is an art cooperative or membership group. Some members take turns running the counter, and/or teaching classes. I go a few times a year, as they change the "main exhibits" maybe every couple of months. There are two main large rooms, with modern and natural art, sculpture, photographs, jewelry and more. I believe all the work is done by people within a 60 mile range of the Center. All work is top-notch and has been juried before being put on exhibit. Every August they have artists come from all over the US to do their Plein Art (open air) program. They paint the beautiful outdoors in a limited amount of time, and compete for prizes. Note, there are a lot of stairs to climb to get to the gallery. There is free parking at the top and bottom of the stairway. There are many other kinds of stores nearby.

This was one of the best stores we visited while in Estes Park; but we're still unsure why it's listed on TA as a museum. Anyway, the STORE is marvelous. The decor is upscale mountain log cabin; with the warmth of natural wood through out. The selection of leather work, pelts, rugs clothing , etc. is incredible. Everything seems high quality and finely crafted. The shop has an almost sensual quality to its merchandise and displays. The fur pelts and rugs alone, almost beg to be stroked. The staff were friendly and helpful; and being it was off-season, browsing was rather comfortable and laid-back. The whole experience was augmented by seeing 5 or 6 elk, by the water behind the shop, prior to entering. It may not be a museum; but the quality and craftsmanship inside certainly deserves a visit.
