Opening Soon in the Historic Simpich Building in
Old Colorado City, Colorado Springs, CO

  
 

The Simpich Showcase will offer three distinct facets which together will provide a vital center for the preservation and presentation of
life-affirming artistic expression. 

 
     

The Simpich Doll Museum will house, preserve and display the 54 year history of Simpich Character Dolls’ active creation in Colorado Springs.  Exciting displays by the Simpich family will trace the chronological development, design philosophy and artistic versatility of the world-renowned dolls. It will further strive to exhaustively document and preserve the Simpich Doll design history and safeguard the world’s largest collection of original and one-of-a-kind Simpich pieces.  A museum store and character doll consignment shop will be featured.

  
     

The Simpich Marionette Theatre will present year-round puppet theatre featuring plays from the Simpich Marionette repertoire. Award-winning productions such as The Secret Garden, Hans Christian Andersen Storybook, Great Expectations as well as Christmas, Easter and other seasonal offerings will be featured. The facility will also offer displays and educational programs to further the appreciation of live puppet theatre and, more broadly, all the live performing arts.    
     

The Simpich Showcase Fine Arts Gallery will exhibit and offer for purchase exceptional fine arts pieces (by a variety of select artists) that distinctly yet diversely display inherent inspirational and life-affirming qualities.  It will further strive to offer educational programs, including lectures and tours, which specifically advance the understanding, appreciation and development of fine arts expression. 
Special shows featuring distinguished artists will be a highlight.
