Magic Town

Unbelievably intricate miniature world. I could have spent hours here looking at the touching, funny vignettes.

Very cool experience! Highly recommended. Price is very reasonable too. Plenty to see but not overwhelming either.

My wife and I came here while in town to see our grandson and our son and his wife .very cool place , some cool illusions and great little town buildings. Almost bought some of the artwork but didn't . Would like to. They has some on sale that are great price but not the ones I wanted . very cool though and I would go back

This is truly a unique CO Springs experience. I found this last weekend when looking for things to do with my boyfriend while I visited from out of town. He has lived in the Springs practically his whole life and never knew this place existed. So we come on Saturday and had a great time! Magic Town offers 2 scavenger hunts. A free one that is shorter-- about 4-5 items to find, and then a $5 scavenger hunt that is 7-8 items, and a cool prize at the end!! We done both and spent a good hour in there! The facility was well kept, and the staff were knowledgeable and friendly! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for good, clean fun!

Simply amazing. Not only did Michael Garmin capture the people, animals, buildings, and interiors perfectly, but he also created stories you can discern simply from examining the details of each scene. Many of the rooms incorporate Pepper's Ghost effects to change from one scene to another (hence the "magic") and carefully positioned mirrors extend alleys into the distance. It would take hours to fully enjoy every detail, but even a brief visit is definitely worth the stop!.

Okay, so Magic Town has always been kind of an oddball shop in Manitou Springs. They sell work by Michael Garman which is not bad, but not my taste. The lower stars is simply because they charge quite a bit for the "museum" portion and it feels kind of dated inside.

Extremely informative personal . Extremely interesting for such a low price . The artwork and city work portrayed here uses multiple levels of depth of field and several techniques developed before industrial light and magic even existed to perform the same illusions life here for you ton-watch and get a better understanding of here . It's Beautifully designed to educated people on the way through . Really in enjoyed it I think it's o e of the only ones in the world . Will be in again soon . Variety of different pieces for all ages to be interested in the display of day to day humanity .

This is a place that can easily be overlooked. It's a nice gem of a place smack dab in old Colorado Springs area. Let me start of by saying that the staff here are FRIENDLY! Even the man sculptor himself made an appearance and was a very nice man. So what's special about this place? Well the storefront showcases his work, which is awesome by the way. But the piece de resistance is magic town ($7 surcharge) which encapsulates his work into segmented themes. I love how he incorporated technology and mirrors to give it a vibrant and living neighborhood. If you're thinking " oh okay, it's cool to look at but is that all?" Then the answer is NOThey integrated participation and art all into a ingenious scavenger hunt. You turn from a passive art admirer to a detective hunting down the scavenger clues. There are 4 tiers of the scavenger hunt: the free one included with your admission and 3 premium tiers ($5, $10, and $20) which is nice way to get people involved. Each tier had multiple hints so that you all aren't hunting for the same thing. I did the $5 one and there were some TRICKY ones. But the vibe is awesome and everyone tries to help everyone out. Even if you're stuck, you can go to the front desk and get a hint. All in all, it turned a 15-20 minute experience into over an hour of trying to comb over every nook and cranny of Magic Town.This is a must just based on unique sculpting and awesome scavenger hunt

One of the coolest places to visit. You could spend hours, and not see everything. Definitely do the scavenger hunt.

This place is a great place to visit in Colorado Springs. It is fun and cool for adults and kids. Its small but you can easily spend hours enjoying the art and doing the scavenger hunt which is a must. The scavenger hunt can be challenging and it's easy to miss some of the items, you have to carefully look at all the art pieces. You work alone because everyone gets a different list. On a good note if worse comes to worst you can get clues from the girl at the front desk and still get a prize if you complete the hunt. I will definitely visit again when I'm in Colorado. It was definitely fun and entertaining.
