Las actividades presentadas han contado con la financiación de los fondos de la fundación Tuchman Family Foundation, la Freeman Foundation, la Virginia W. Hill Foundation, la Sidney E. Frank Foundation, el fondo Colorado Fund, Colorado Creative Industries, la fundación Margulf Foundation, la Riverfront Park Community Foundation, Lorraine y Harley Higbie, un donante anónimo, y los residentes que dan su apoyo al Distrito de Organizaciones Científicas y Culturales (SCFD por sus siglas en inglés). Un agradecimiento especial a nuestros colegas del Morgridge College of Education de la Universidad de Denver. El programa Free for Kids en el Denver Art Museum es posible gracias a Scott Reiman, con el apoyo de Bellco Credit Union.
