Opening June 12, 2026 – The Leonardo da Vinci Museum of North America & STEAM Center is launching an innovative initiative to transform educational and cultural opportunities across Southern Colorado. This hands-on museum will integrate the genius of Leonardo da Vinci—artist, inventor, scientist, and engineer—into a dynamic space for STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) learning. Every machine in our museum is hand-built by the internationally recognized Artisans of Florence, the world’s leading creators of historically accurate Leonardo da Vinci machine reconstructions. Using wood, rope, metal, rivets, and engineering principles pulled directly from Leonardo’s codices, these artisans bring 500-year-old inventions into the modern world — with remarkable accuracy and craftsmanship.
