See who's the bravest in the family on the Wind Walker Challenge, a maze of steel beams, swinging ropes and ladders hanging 600 feet above the canyon floor. Let your family seek thrills, pan for gemstones, eat good food and shop for memorable souvenirs at this attraction.

Kids mix science with fun at the Colorado Springs Cool Science Festival! The Hands-on Science Carnival offers row after row of activity stations, laboratory tours, and free workshops to participate in activities like making your very own mini catapult and flinging marshmallows at the Fruitcake Toss. Live performances and guest speakers are also in attendance at this festival of learning.

The Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center is home to three important cultural institutions: an art museum, a theater company and an art school. Visitors can enjoy seeing permanent and traveling modern art collections, musical and non-musical original plays, and taking community-based art classes.
