Family Workshop at Plains Conservation Center: Building Shelters in the 1800s

In the 1800s, people living on the Colorado prairie and in the mountains had to use their natural resources to build homes. Come learn how the Ute, Cheyenne, and homesteaders created shelters and make your own miniature tipi to take home.

Family Workshops at Plains Conservation Center offer families a fun, hands-on guided opportunity to learn about the prairie and the people, plants and animals that live or have lived on the prairie. Workshops include a guided exploration of the topic and a project for adults and children to create together. This workshop is designed for families with children ages 5-10.
