    BREAKING: Opening Announced for Pueblo’s da Vinci Museum

    The Leonardo Da Vinci Museum of North America, located in Pueblo, will open to the public on June 12th. The long awaited announcement occurred March 26 and a full schedule of the opening ribbon-cutting ceremony, celebration and activities will be announced in April.

    The museum is a unique attraction. It will be the only permanent Leonardo da Vinci Museum of its kind in North America. Project leaders say the concept carries a 10-year exclusivity agreement, meaning similar installations will not appear elsewhere on the continent during that time.

    The museum celebrates the legendary Renaissance figure not just as an artist, but as an inventor, engineer, scientist and visionary. Designed as an immersive, interactive space, the museum aims to make art and innovation accessible to visitors of all ages.

    “This isn’t a museum where you just walk through and look at things behind glass. We want people to experience Leonardo’s ideas and imagination first-hand.” — Joe Arrigo, founding director and president

    The museum is working with the Artisans of Florence, who build detailed replicas of Leonardo’s machines based on his original designs. The Pueblo facility will also house a complete collection of Leonardo da Vinci’s codices, a rare resource typically accessible only in Europe or major global institutions.
