Drawn exclusively from the Carter’s Fred and Jo Mazzulla Collection, "Come to Colorado" showcases 19th-century photographs, including work from W. J. Carpenter, Joseph M. Collier, and William Henry Jackson.

Fred Mazzulla spent decades building a collection of visual materials, including photographs, about the history of Colorado. Acquired by the Carter in 1976, these rarely-shown photographs document Colorado’s settlement by White Americans, and the promotion of the area as an outdoor playground in tandem with the growth of the mining industry of the late 19th century.
