A half block from the main street, we love to be discovered by visitors to Crested Butte. Statements like "incredible"or "amazing" remind us of the beauty which surrounds us daily in our gallery. We enjoy helping our customers find a gift or artwork for their home. At the same time we delight in watching our artists forward their careers.

The Crested Butte Mountain Heritage Museum preserves and shares the history, stories, and traditions of the Gunnison County. The historic Tony's Conoco (The first gas pump in town) was preserved as the basecamp of the museum, and holds permanent as well as rotating museums, features a gift shop, and hosts historic walking tours and other educational events. We also serve as a beautiful venue to host your next gathering or special event. Reach out to us directly to inquire!

The Trailhead Children's Museum is located at 16 Sixth Street next to Off Elk Bakery in Crested Butte, CO. Admission is $8.00 per person, ages one and up. Great for all ages! We offer an engaging and dynamic environment that inspires children and families to explore, create, and learn together through discovery and play. Kids love pretend play from the Cabin Playhouse to the Grocery Store and Vendor Cart, dressing up as a pirate or fairy, exploring color and light with the Light Table, & finding their inner Picasso in the Art Bar. Dads and kids alike get creative building large structures in the Blue Block Area and creating in the Lego Exhibit.
