Northglenn Arts & Humanities Foundation (NAHF)

 

The Northglenn Arts & Humanities Foundation (NAHF) provides funding for quality youth theatre, performing arts collaborations, national tours, public art, and other cultural endeavors in the North Denver Metro area under the umbrella Northglenn Arts. Yearly, 36,000 youth and adults attend or participate in a NAHF funded performance, special event or class. Hundreds of thousands enjoy the extensive public art collection throughout the city. All programming takes place at the Parsons Theatre in the Northglenn Recreation Center, EB Rains Jr. Memorial Park, and various parks throughout Northglenn.

The mission of the NAHF is to maintain and nurture the cultural arts for the benefit of our community. Its plan is to accomplish this through the development and support of successful collaborations between the arts, businesses, service groups, schools and artists for optimum utilization of artistic resources. NAHF strives to provide access for all residents to the performing and visual arts, to promote an awareness of the arts and to enhance the community image through the development of a cultural climate. In partnership with the City of Northglenn, NAHF sponsors affordable, quality arts programs and performances at the Parsons Theatre and in City parks and schools.

Formed in 1990, the NAHF is a non-profit, charitable organization with a 501(c)3 status.
