DENVER MUSIC
ADVANCEMENT FUND

More Than $1.5M Distributed to 178 Projects From 2018-2022

Launched in 2018 as part of the Denver Music Strategy, the Denver Music Advancement Fund supported community initiatives that harnessed the power of music to strengthen economic vibrancy, build a more equitable and connected city, and create positive social change. Programs subsidized by DMAF used music as a tool to impact mental health and wellness, education, youth engagement, social justice, literature, film, dance, theater, visual arts, technology, climate action, global connectivity and other social innovations.

Take Note Colorado was a partner of the Denver Music Advancement Fund since 2020 - a statewide initiative offering equitable access to musical instruments and instruction to every K‑12 student in Colorado. They support Denver programs that are inclusive, student-centered, culturally responsive and empower all students to participate in music.
