Steamboat Today: Steamboat Art Museum is cultural jewel
Steamboat Springs is home to several gems that quietly sparkle – places that add dimension and culture to our mountain community – and the Steamboat Art Museum is one of those.
If you haven’t visited the Steamboat Art Museum lately, you’re in for a treat. Last month, the museum, located on the corner of Eighth Street and Lincoln Avenue, unveiled a new exhibit, “Imagining the West,” which also marks the completion of a multi-year renovation of the historic, circa-1905 Rehder building.
The exhibit is definitely impressive and so is the museum’s newly expanded space.
