Historic Boulder is offering a special tour of Las Barracas led by Boulder County Parks and Open Space Cultural Resource Coordinator Elisabeth Ríos-Brooks. 

Elisabeth will share the research and stories that she and her team of students have uncovered in their project to develop a cultural context study for Latinx/Chicano history in Boulder County. One of what were originally three barracks was saved form demolition when the County acquired the agricultural property as Open Space. Come see the barracks up close and learn the stories of the Mexican American farmworkers and their families who called this place home.

Las Barracas is located just east of Longmont and is not generally open to the public.  The tour is free but space is limited: sign up HERE.
