Titanic treasures on view for free

BROOMFIELD - Two metro area shopping malls, along with Country Financial have teamed up to offer a free historic exhibit for the public.

Titanic, Treasures of the Deep is a traveling exhibit that is in the Denver area for the next two weekends.

The exhibit features more than 50 Titanic artifacts; from cufflinks, to hairbrushes, clothing, luggage, a spittoon even a piece of the ship's hull. There are pictures of passengers who were on board from a family in third class to one of Titanic's most famous passengers, the unsinkable Molly Brown.

The companies sponsoring the event see it as a way to advertise, but it also gives families a good deal in a tough economy.

The exhibit will be on display April 23 through April 26 at the Flatiron Crossing mall in Broomfield, and then it heads down to Park Meadows mall, April 30 through May 3. On Thursday and Friday at both exhibits you can even meet Captain E.J. Smith, captain of the RMS Titanic.
