South Park: Handmade in Colorado Opening
The Colorado History Museum is opening a new exhibition tracing the origins of South Park and its place in history on December 6. South Park: Handmade in Colorado tells the story of the show and its creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, bringing together behind-the-scenes items like concept art, original scripts, production storyboards, character design, and more.
Celebrating its 30th anniversary in August 2027, South Park began with two friends at CU Boulder’s film school creating movies inspired by the people and places around them. Over the course of their careers, they developed a distinctive brand of humor and storytelling that has taken them from Colorado to Hollywood to Broadway and back home to Red Rocks and Casa Bonita.
The exhibition is included with general admission tickets available online for pre-purchase. Timed entry to South Park: Handmade in Colorado is required. Admission is always free for History Colorado members and children 18 and younger. History Colorado members are invited to see the exhibition first on December 5, 2026. The Colorado History Museum is open daily from 10 am – 5 pm.
