You've heard the familiar stories about Fort Collins but much of our community's history, specifically the narratives of historically marginalized groups, has often been overlooked. Join us as we explore the full stories of Fort Collins past—in this first edition, we follow the early experiences of Black settlers in Fort Collins, as well as community leaders and organizations who made the necessary push for civil rights.
The Full Story Fort Collins project is a collaboration between the City’s Communications & Public Involvement Office and Historic Preservation Services.
