The Boettcher Foundation is dedicated to assisting, promoting, and encouraging
the residents of the state of Colorado. This program
builds on the Foundation's history of promoting leadership
development in Colorado through the Boettcher Scholars
Program and the Boettcher Teachers Program. Colorado's
arts and cultural organizations are one of the state's
great treasures, and the Foundation believes this
is the right time to invest in their ongoing impact
on the Colorado community. By partnering with NAS,
the Foundation is providing an unprecedented level
of executive education specifically for the arts and
cultural leaders of Colorado, and helping to sustain
this treasured resource.
