SCFD (Scientific and Cultural Facilities District)

SCFD (Scientific and Cultural Facilities District) is the only cultural funding model in the nation that serves a region of seven counties. This broad base has allowed us to grow into the second-largest cultural funding mechanism in the United States. We fund nearly 300 organizations across our front-range urban corridor, distributing more than $80 million annually. These tax dollars provide critical operational support for small, medium, and large organizations. We’re also a catalyst for bringing world-class exhibits and events to our metro region which would otherwise never be presented. SCFD is proof that we are stronger together. Culture is not just available in the epicenter of our cities, but surrounds us throughout the metro area.
