I was skeptical, but my son really wanted to go.I stand corrected!The detail was fantastic! My personal favorite was the optical illusions and mirror work.We had a great time doing the scavenger hunt as well.Go visit if you have time!

This was very cool place. The owner made these carving on his own. It was so Awesome the place was clean an the customer service was way nice..

Interesting little museum of all of Michael Garmans sculptures. For $5 you get to see the sculptured city built with precision and artistry that comes to life with reflective imagery. You also get to really appreciate digging into the intricacies by doing a free scavenger hunt with a prize or buy paying for harder more in depth scavenger hunts allowing you to dig deeper into the sculptures and history with even bigger and better prizes and you almost always come out a winner, no matter what the cost.

If you are looking for something fun for the entire family (all ages) .... the Michael Garman Museum & Gallery in Colorado Springs could be the place to go. They have built up a miniature 1930s - 1940s city of really detailed diaramas complete with changing holographic rooms. We have been there a few times over the years and still enjoy it. They offer a scavenger hunt to find hidden items in the displays. The displays are very real looking and skillfully done. There is a charge to see the Magic Town display but worth it. This is one of the hidden treasures so many people miss.

Michael Garman Studio is off the charts. I own 10 statues... that being said, my favorite is The Traveler. I love my guy with his suitcase packed.I have a number of Christmas ornaments too. I’ve been here many many times. I especially love Magic Town. Be sure to take the time to check this out. There is over 2 million dollars invested in this project. This is a great place to bring friends visiting from out of town. If you ever get the opportunity to do the “behind the scenes tour”, do it!!!!! Absolutely fascinating!!!! The tour takes you underground to see the process of creating the statues. You also get to meet the artists who hand paint the items. If you own a statue and you have damaged it, you can send it back and have it repaired by one of the artists. There are a number of famous people who owns MG. The staff is very helpful and friendly. ️️️️️

You have to see it for yourself. This is not a huge place but what they have presented is very impressive. Tickets are very affordable (around $5?) and worth the money for about an hour of browsing. They have some easy games you can play in relation to the exhibit to make it a bit more interesting and causing you to look a little more intentionally at the detail. What Michael Garmin has done here is nothing short of amazing. Its worth an afternoon of your time... go check it out then grab a nice lunch at a nearby restaurant. Recommended.

Awesome it was like I was a giant watching a tiny town. Beautiful and magical art work.

The Magic museum was fascinating for adults and teens both. Very interesting way to view sculptured art. We enjoyed it!

So much fun. Amazing sculptures and the scavenger hunt made it even better

We came here awhile back and loved it. Was told they decorate for Halloween and Christmas so we came back for that and it was very well done and so much fun!! We especially love doing the scavenger hunt!! The lady in front is always so sweet and helpful and I couldnt imagine anyone else running this place but her. Shes an added bonus!

Great experience at Magic Town! My kids thought it was neat how they use mirrors to make it look like the streets go further back. The staff is fantastic and so helpful! We even met Michael Garman while we were there (thats not a normal thing)! I would love to go back and see it at Christmas!

This place is absolutely amazing! My family spent couple of hours here on Sunday afternoon, just exploring this fascinating museum. Incredible atmosphere, this place has character with all sculptures, buildings etc. all manually crafted to the tiniest detail. The entry fee is dirt cheap too. An absolutely required attraction for anyone visiting Colorado Springs!

I love that museum its unique.

Pretty awesome all the details ... the scavenger hunt they give you to do it also entertaining! Makes you look at everything a bit harder !!!!!

Absolutely loved this place!! Truely amazing and only $5 admission fee. They decorate the museum for Halloween and Christmas so looking for to go back those times as well

Such talented and gifted work. Always a treat coming here.

Incredible! We were in awe of Mr. Garmans unique talent! So much fun for all ages!! We will be back!

The attention to detail is amazing. Simply fantastic!

Thought it would be fun to take the kids. The idea was great but it didnt feel like it was all kid appropriate.

Amazing life story and incredible traveling experiences that capture the history of America and other world travels.The sculptures are incredibly unique and while give you the chance to escape time, space and dimension for a little while.

Best place to get personalized souvenirs. And the best service there, everyone was so friendly

Magic Town is like nothing Ive seen before! This small town is jam packed with interesting scenes and holograms! How the scenes change is truly mind boggling. Michael has thought of everything and has captured every detail, its a must see!

Magic town inside the museum is amazingly detailed. Definitely worth the admission and you can take as little or as much time as you like to go through it. There is a scavenger hunt available which can be a fun activity for all in the family.

Loved magic town and the scavenger hunt!

Hidden gem. Amazing detail.

Awesome place! Really interesting.

We wanted to stay here longer than we expected. Admission was affordable, and the staff was friendly and eager to engage with guests. The scenes are detailed so thoughtfully, and it is interesting to read and hear about the artists process. Magic town is fun to explore, young or old!

This place is pretty cool, I highly recommend. I saw kids enjoying it as well.

Awesome place! The 3D recreation of the olden times is mind blowing! Michael has such a vivid imagination. His talent and vision with this is absolutely spectacular! Steve and Laura were absolutely awesome in explaining how Michael put this together and how he came up with the concept. If you enjoy looking at the past, youll be amazed at how much detail this exhibit has. Youll truly get a glimpse of the past.

Wonderful experience. Definitely worth the time.

Amazing detail in this one of a kind attraction. Kids of all ages will delight in the enchantment that can be experienced while travelling the streets of Magic Town, a 1/6 scale model of a cityscape circa 1950s Anytown, USA. Children will delight to see the sculptures come alive through simple stage illusion and lighting techniques, while adults will enjoy the experience and possible nostalgia for the old times. Times when life seemed simpler, but was inexorably complex. The statues Michael has been creating for more than 40 years have made his gallery an icon of the Old Colorado City atmosphere. At times guests can even be delighted by a visit from the master Magician himself; Mr. Garman has been known to drop in on occasion to give people personal anecdotes and tours if his masterpiece. Everyone will enjoy what is sure to be a newly created lifetime memory that will bring them back for years to come!

Wonderful! Got a little scavenger hunt that made me look really close at all the phenominal exhibits and it was overall a fun experience. The staff was also very kind and knowledgeable about the artwork. And then the artist himself made a surprise appearance and listening to his story was amazing.

Amazing. Ive never seen anything quite like this before and I have been to many places. Michael is very talented. I would like to meet this creative individual one day. Im sure he is an interesting fellow. He has to be to invisionened all of this.

The best place in Colorado Springs, you cannot leave without going there.

Absolutely wonderful. Highly recommended.

This is the first place I take all visiting friends and relatives. They go kicking and screaming, but once inside this unique and magical place, they too fall in love with it :)

Really awesome place it has cool holograms

Decided to check out this store and were we pleasantly surprised what amazing artwork this gentleman does. And magic town was amazing very detailed its definitely something I have never seen before I recommend this place to anyone its a must!!

I Love there Military Soldier Statues. I bought one to reward my Sergeant First Class and they had it engraved and ready in 3 days. He loved it and they did an amazing job. Thank You and I recommemd them to others!

The scavenger hunt was fun. We had the honor of meeting Mr. Garman himself who took the time to show us how things worked. Totally recommend visiting.

This is such a neat hidden gem! Michael Garman makes amazingly detailed sculptures of different occupations. The best part is Magic Town. Its a small fee to enter into magic town that is inside the gallery. Its literally a small town with all kinds of characters and scenes with mirrors that makes for a fun time of seeing things that arent as they appear. They also offer a treasure hunt along the way. This is a good rainy day activity and also good for children!

Extremely interesting. We went around Halloween, and completed a fun scavanger hunt. Not really something enjoyable if you like crazy, active things, but it is cool to see all of the hard work done.

Mr. Michael has created a world of detail, beauty and realism not easy to found in this art. Spend two hours with my kids looking around and contemplating this masterpiece.

The place was awesome! Steve was giving us a short tear he was very friendly and knowledgable! Will definitely come back again with my other friends to show them this place.

This place is magical. We spent a lot of time here getting lost in the art and the characters stories. Its only 2 rooms but it seemed so much bigger. Definitely worth it!

Remarkable! One of the best things I have seen since visiting my friends Pete and Jill!. I would recommend this art gallery to everyone! Good price and very nice people working in the gallery! It’s a one of a kind place to visit! Visit there, you’ll be happy!

Oh man, if you want to see things that you wont get to see every day, go to this store! I love all his stuff and its very reasonably priced. The museum is totally worth the $5!

What a wonderful and unique hidden gem. Swung in on a whim with my daughter and spent hours there. Magictown is just Incredible.

This was such a wonderful experience for us and the kids. Very cool. So much talent in Michael Garmans city, and friendly staff too.

OMG!!!I took my 13 and 15 year old here Friday night. We had so much fun and they really got into the effort and details that were put into this beautiful art.

This was suprising fun. We did the scavenger hunt and loved looking at all of the scenes.

THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! Steve Pedersen and Mary Burright are awesome! They have gone over and above in customer service. They were able to create a personalized handpainted statue for me of my husband. It looks just like him too! He is an Alaska State Trooper and they have all the details perfect.We have several other statues from the gallery and plan to buy more.We highly recommend Michael Garman Museum and Gallery.

Awesome place highly recommend going there especially on holiday celebrations like Halloween and Christmas Times. He does great sculpture work pricey but worth it

I met Michael Garman today and I feel like a little kid. This museum is beyond amazing and I love coming here with my family. I loved meeting the artist behind all the stories. I will always come back!

Neat place to visit.

Small place, but very fun especially with the scavenger hunt. So much detail. I will definitely be going back.

Needs new stuff, but what they have is cool and pricey.

That place is awesome, and we actually got to talk with the artist!

This is an amazing museum and it is well worth the price. The history is amazing. Worth it!

We Were awed by the lifelike and realistic designs by Michael Garman. The museum was worth the small entry fee. The use of mirrors and holograms added to the wonderful experience.

It was really cool.

The sculptures Michael Garman creates are true to life people each with its own personality and story.

Great place to visit.

Love this place

Well worth it! Very beautiful artwork.

A must see place. And we actually met Mr. Garman! Made the visit even more memorable.

Its a must see if you are living in Colorado Springs. Michael Garman is a very talented man who put a lot of detail into his work. The museum is only $5 per person which in my opinion is reasonable. It felt like I was back in time and I loved every minute of it ! I even got to meet Mr. Garman and he is a very nice man !

Steve Pedersen always insisted the gallery is a place you need to see and he was more than right. You feel the history in the building and the culture in the art. I will return with friends and family.

Absolutely,stunning 5he work of art is like no other..If you havent been there i do recommend it,great for kids and adults alike to see

Worth the trip. The artwork and level of detail use amazing. I highly suggest taking the time to visit and top view it in detail.

Loved in Colorado Springs for awhile never knew about this place. Went today and it was amazing! So much fun and the gentleman at the front was beyond friendly. LOVED IT!

Absolutely delightful experience. Its like a walk back in time and a wondrous experience of art and genius!

What I first thought to be an odd stop in our weekends itinerary turned out to be a very interesting hour. The magic town is well crafted and full of small details, these are complimented by good use of lights and mirrors. The scavenger hunt were a good way to get you to pay attention to the details and provided fun for the whole family!

Freaking awesome detail and work was put into this showcase! Great stop on a fun date night!

Michael Garman Gallery is a wonderful place to visit and the sculptures are pure Americana. I recently purchased a number of sculptures as gifts and one of them was not done correctly. The manager and everyone involved fixed the issue immediately and with grace. I was truly impressed with and appreciative of the staffs genuine concern and quick response. Any organization can provide good customer service up to the time of sale. Its the service you get after the sale that really gives you a measure of the organization and Michael Garmans staff is fantastic. I recommend this company to anyone interested in sculptures depicting our American heritage.

While you can look at his art at the front of the building, its way worth the few dollars to go to the larger museum in the back..its amazing!

Amazing sculptor! We visited at start of Christmas season.. and the manager? She is the best! Thank you so much Kim!

Took 14 kids between 5 and 9. They LOVED it. I loved it. This place is awesome. The fee to see magic town is worth it. But you can still see the sculptures without visiting magic town.

Very cool sculptures and displaysRecommend anyone stopping in to check it out. Worth the time to do the scavenger hunt. Not like most art galleries, kids welcome and friendly staff.

Love this place!

Just love this place I have known of this artist for a while when I was a young girl i used to have my grandmother take me to see his art work downtown at writer square. just have always loved miniature things and his holograms were amazing what he did at the time. truly something you should check out!

The place is Amazing. I always find a unique gift for that hard to buy for person.Be sure to go through the Town ! The sculptures are amazing and each one tells a story.You will not regret going into and spending time in this shop !

Intriguing art work, fun to find the scenes that change and doing the scavenger hunt added to the experience.

Absolutely amazing everytime I go here. This time there were bigger and better scavenger hunt and we all had a blast. I got a sculpture for finishing the hunt. Everyone has got to go experience this venue and you just might get the meet Michael Garmen himself!! Such a treat.

It was a fun little museum. The staff was friendly. I had a good time.

A local treasure! This is a fun and well worth the entry fee to exsperience this amazing display! A created miniature town complete with lights, sound and special effects that make it shine! There is so much to see that you can spend hours and still miss some small detail installed into the display! I still find something new I had missed before when I visit! ;) check out the posted videos to get a feel for what the gallery is all about!

Totally unbelievable! The details and craftsmanship is tops here! A must see if near!

A really cool museum definitely worth the $5 entry fee. Model Town.

Magic town a must see. Scavanger hunt is fun for the whole family.

Very neat little gallery. You can either spend 5-10 minutes going through it quickly or do the scavenger hunt and spend about 30 mins to an hour. Worth the $5 for sure.

I always love bringing someone to the Michael Garmen gallery/studio for the first time! The wonder and amazement of everyone who comes here is truly unforgettable! The artistry, detail, craftmanship and fun factor are very very special characteristics all found in the gallery and in Magic Town!! If you havent been here before, Come and see what youre missing! I promise, it will put a smile on your face!!

Very nice staffKelly is very helpful!! Shes awesome!

Have to see for yourself cute place

This place is absolutely fascinating. Intricate detail, clever visual tricks, and a whole lot of character mark the cityscape scenes, and the staff is incredibly welcoming. Definitely worth the price of admission!

Dont miss this! It was really fun!

Wonderful experience!

Took my Aviator for repair. Finished project was nice.

I think I will need to return several times

Super cool unique museum. Cheap. Free scavenger hunts which are pretty hard. Amazing detail

Magic town was really cool, alot of detail to everything!
