While it started as a museum to honor World War II veterans, the museum has expanded to include conflicts from the Civil War forward and serviceman from all branches of service. Visit us to learn more about the heroic men and women who have served our country in times of war and peace.
Through programming and educational outreach we meet our mission of preserving the memories of America’s military history and facilitating the stories of veterans for the benefit and education of generations to come.
You can also watch a livestream of our Coffee and Conversation presentations on our YouTube channel.
The museum takes part each year in services for Memorial Day, Flag Day and Veterans Day. Join us in showing our support for service members on these days. Click HERE for schedule.

Come out to the Veterans Museum this Saturday, July 15 at 10am for a special presentation, The Life Journey of April Girl. In this presentation, Fred tells the “amalgamated” account of one B-17 bomber, from its birth in the Seattle factory, through stories of B-17 overseas deliveries, to over 145 missions this aircraft flew over Europe. This story is told – and imagined – through eye-witness accounts of Broomfield and Colorado-related heroes who served aboard B-17’s during WWII. More information can be found here.
