Annual Fund
History Colorado is the keeper of Colorado’s treasures—the over 15 million stories, images and artifacts of our heritage, a trusted resource for history education statewide, and a forum for civic, civil debate about today's issues in a historical context.
By donating to the Annual Fund, you will help us continue to engage people in our state’s heritage through exhibits and programs offered at our 12 historic sites and museums - including the new History Colorado Center!
The grand opening was just the start - help us continue to bring our new History Colorado Center to life and share the excitement of learning and enjoyment to our visitors and Coloradans across the state.
You can look forward to:
• Compelling exhibits and programs-guided by a large-scale visitor research effort designed to cultivate a well-informed, engaged citizenry.
• New exhibits that will personalize the History Colorado experience, using oral histories, video and Web-based media.
• Live performances and on-site interpreters to facilitate and expand interaction with our exhibits. Additionally, a comprehensive series of programs — lectures, adult classes, and summer youth camps — will encourage the exploration of Colorado history.
• Continued statewide activities for families and children, in addition to new outreach programs for K-12 schools that include fieldtrips, distance learning, and professional development for educators.
Join us to make History for our Future, Today!
