We are the non-profit 501(c)4 statewide arts advocacy membership organization, dedicated to improving the climate for culture throughout the state. We focus most of our attention on preserving and expanding state support of the arts. In 2006, AFC and our members played a critical role in restoring $2 million in funding to the Colorado Council on the Arts.
CCC is the non-profit 501(c)3 charitable arm of Arts for Colorado. CCC works to raise public awareness of the vital role the arts play in education excellence, economic health and quality of life for all Coloradoans.
