The Westend Training Center is a place but it is more about people. People learning together, sharing a vision, living together, committed to personal and community growth.

The Westend Training Center opens in March 2004. The center serves as the western region museum location for collections care training and as a facility rental for independent trainers and instructors.

The center is located at the West End of Estes Park behind the water wheel. One block behind Main Street, the 1912 historic building, distinguished by its Italian Stucco exterior, hosts museum residential training and rents meeting space and overnight accommodations for 18 at affordable rates. We are pleased to be able to offer a comfortable, intimate, alternative for small groups in Estes Park, gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park.

   
   
   
   

The newly renovated 1st floor meeting area is cheerful with natural light and high ceilings, an intimate space for small groups yet spacious and airy with modern appeal. The center provides tables and chairs for working in this space. An Instructor and participants will provide all other equipment and supplies needed for a workshop. There is a full size self-service kitchen.

An adjoining workshop space includes adjustable worktables, deep utility sinks, photography support areas, supplies, and tool storage.

Upstairs 5 dormitory rooms provide single beds for up to 18. An outdoor balcony provides both downtown and mountain views. A small but cozy living room is perfect for continuing the stimulating debate and discussion initiated in workshops. There is an additional self-service kitchen, and 3 full bathrooms to share. Think adult hostel... no frills, a bit quirky, clean and intimate.
