Denver Architectural Foundation

Incorporated in 1990, the Denver Architectural Foundation (DAF) raises public understanding of the built environment through education, advocacy for excellence in architecture and public participation. DAF is highly collaborative, working with other local non-profits, including Tier III SCFD organizations, city agencies and schools. Architectural firms, private businesses and hundreds of volunteers including over 25,000 metro-Denver citizens and 250 design professionals participate annually in DAF programs.  

DAF focuses on education and public outreach to educate and inform the Denver community about our built environment. We connect people in the SCFD region and reveal the impact that architecture plays in our daily lives. Knitting Denver's future with its past to build an architectural legacy about all that is great and uniquely Denver.
