There’s an unmistakable Colorado flare to FloCo Gallery and Gifts on the main street of Florence, a 4,000-person town in the state’s banana belt with a steady stream of tourists who come for the hot springs, antiquing, nearby renowned rafting and Royal Gorge.
The shop is run by two brothers who curate the merchandise with a decidedly local focus – exhibiting area artists, selling their woodworks and botanicals, and even – among the gallery’s far wall of novelty t-shirts – showcasing the very face of perhaps Florence’s most infamous inhabitant.
