Walkshop: Indigenous History of Settlement along the Platte River and Denver's Early Beginnings
14th and Welton Street, 1
On this tour of Wašíŋ Wakpá, we’ll focus on Denver’s early beginnings, examining what the river meant to the indigenous people that were present well before any trace of the contemporary city. We’ll travel along the river to STEAM on the Platte, and take participants through the history of the site and adjacent neighborhood. Then, we’ll scoot along the Cherry Creek Art Trail, where we’ll examined the history and opportunity that lies ahead.
