Where curiosity comes to life.
Exploring art, science, and invention through the spirit of Leonardo.
Opening Spring 2026.

Yesterday in Florence, Italy, at 3:00 PM CET, dele Yesterday in Florence, Italy, at 3:00 PM CET, delegates met at Palazzo Vecchio, for a formal welcome by the Comune di Firenze, including a private preview of the Sala dei Cinquecento.

We also presented gifts to the Comune, filled with artwork and goods from Pueblo, Colorado, assembled in collaboration with the @pueblopubworks (Pueblo Public Works), the @visitpueblo (Pueblo Chamber of Commerce), and Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade.

From 4:00 to 6:00 PM CET, the program continued at the @giuntiodeon (Giunti Odeon in Piazza degli Strozzi) with an international tribute to Leonardo, bringing together leading museums and speakers, including a valued presence from the Leonardo da Vinci museum in China.

The evening highlighted the growing partnership with @pinodia_sokcho (Pinodia Sokcho, a Leonardo museum in South Korea), and we extend sincere gratitude to the opera singers they presented.

The day concluded with the official signing of a partnership between the Leonardo da Vinci Museum of North America and the @museoleonardodavincifirenze 
(Museo Leonardo da Vinci), establishing a pathway for cultural exchange and shared innovation.

During this gathering, Joe was presented by Giunti Editore with the full set of authentication documents for each codex in our complete library, along with a commemorative medal. The @artisansofflorence (Artisans of Florence) also gifted a handcrafted aerial screw in honor of Leonardo da Vinci.
It was such a pleasure to explore our sister museu It was such a pleasure to explore our sister museum in Florence, the @museoleonardodavincifirenze!

As the city where Leonardo da Vinci spent much of his formative years, Florence offers a glimpse into the environment that shaped his curiosity, discipline, and imagination.

This is the city where powerful families like the Medici family invested in artists and thinkers, where the guild system trained young apprentices in hands-on workshops, and where masters like Andrea del Verrocchio mentored emerging talent. It’s here that Leonardo trained in Verrocchio’s studio—learning painting, sculpture, engineering, and observation all at once in a culture that valued both art and innovation.

Experiences like this continue to shape how we bring his story to life back home—rooted not just in his work, but in the world that formed him.
How will international collaboration and enrichmen How will international collaboration and enrichment affect you?

We’re glad you asked.

Our approach to international relationships is built with our visitors in mind. Through time spent with our global partners, we’re exploring ideas for future exhibit experiences, potential museum network benefits, and thoughtful ways to strengthen cultural connection.

While these efforts take time to develop, they represent a step toward creating opportunities that could one day connect Southern Colorado more closely with places like Italy.
Why Pueblo? First, Pueblo natives and generous do Why Pueblo?

First, Pueblo natives and generous donors, with a real passion for education, fought hard to make this happen in the city they love.

Second, Southern Colorado is one of the most underserved regions in the state for STEAM education and resources. We believe students and educators here deserve more ways to learn.

And finally, Pueblo already has so much to build on. Wonderful people, a beautiful riverwalk, a reservoir that serves millions of people a year, a deep connection to Italian heritage, and a thriving community of local business owners.

This is a place worth investing in and that’s why in the next few days, the Leonardo da Vinci Museum of North America will sign sister museum agreements with museums in Florence, Italy and Sokcho South Korea!
