Philatelists of all ages are placing a stamp on Denver. What’s a philatelist? A stamp collector, of course. And hundreds will be at the Rocky Mountain Stamp Show on Friday to Sunday, May 24 to 26, 2024, at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds. Admission (and parking) is totally FREE.
The Show is a lot of fun. Stamps are snapshots of the past and present and can tell the story or a person, place or time. Many can take you to exotic destinations or on a journey into space.
The 2023 show theme is “Celebrating the Native Plants of Colorado.” Members of the Colorado Native Plant Society and the Colorado Cactus and Succulent Society will be on hand to answer your Colorado plant questions and share their knowledge.
About 32 dealers will showcase their wares and “What’s in Your Attic?” offers FREE, no obligation, advice for those who want to learn more about inherited stamp albums and old family collections.
Plus there will be the usual activities for children – Wildlife Safari, Greetings from America, Design a Stamp and our ever-popular Treasure Tubs.
Hours are: Friday & Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
As a bonus, right across the hall will be the Denver Postcard and Paper Show.
