Steering Committee

East Colfax Cultural District Steering Committee ApPlication:

The East Colfax Cultural District was formed in 2022 to claim, celebrate, and preserve the rich history and cultural diversity of the residents and locally-owned small businesses that call East Colfax home. The community-led steering committee was launched in 2023 to guide the Cultural District’s work and make decisions about what kinds of small business promotion, arts & cultural events, community spaces and initiatives should be created to make the District a thriving and inclusive place that meets the needs and aspirations of the East Colfax community. We are looking for members to join the committee! Committee members meet virtually once a month for hour-long meetings, along with four in-person meetings per year (one per quarter).

Preference will be given to those who live or work along the East Colfax Corridor and adjacent neighborhoods, and who are the most directly impacted stakeholders. *We will not use your contact information for any purpose other than this application and to communicate about the steering committee’s development.* Thank you!
