10 years. 4 awards. 1 Victorian house on Colfax. 🏆

A decade ago, we opened The Learned Lemur to the public and hoped someone would show up. You did. And you kept showing up.

Now we’re Denver’s Best Oddities Shop.

Last year we added — and you made us Denver’s Best Tattoo Shop.

Our monthly sideshow, Conspiracy Circus, just won BOTH Denver’s Best Immersive Experience AND Denver’s Best Sideshow Experience.

We’re not just surviving. We’re thriving. Because of you.

To everyone who’s walked through these doors, bought a bone, gotten inked, attended a show, told a friend, or just believed in what we’re building here — thank you. This is your win as much as ours.

Here’s to 10 more years of the strange, the unusual, and the unforgettable.
