Due to the forecasted weather for Sunday, we're disappointed to announce that Carousel Christmas is canceled. We want to keep all of our guests, staff and volunteers safe.
Carousel Christmas is Sunday, December 2nd from 1:30pm-3:30pm. Come on out for some holiday fun with your favorite wooden friends! Rides and Museum admission are FREE. The carousel will be dressed in its holiday best and the band organ will be belting out your favorite holiday tunes.
The world-famous Kit Carson County Carousel and museum will open Saturday, May 26 for the 2018 season. The 113 year old Merry Go Round will spin daily throughout the summer from 11 a.m to 6 p.m.
It’s a wonder to think about all that has happened in the world from the time when our carousel first began to turn its magic. Just like longing to learn the history of one’s family, we are fascinated by the history of The Kit Carson County Carousel.
Will began his carousel restoration odyssey with the “Jewel of American Carousels”, the Kit Carson County Carousel in 1978. He led the idea of preserving carousels as “works of art”. His influence will live on in every treasure he helped restore, most certainly with PTC No. 6.
