Dana Day: A Tribute to Dana Crawford

Dana Day at Larimer Square is a community celebration honoring the legacy of Dana Crawford, the visionary behind the preservation and revival of the block. Known for saving Larimer Street from demolition in the 1960s and transforming it into Denver’s first historic district, Crawford helped shape the city’s modern cultural identity.

Returning for its second year, Dana Day brings that spirit to life with live music and neighborhood energy, celebrating the history, creativity, and community she championed. Archival photos and materials will be on display, offering a glimpse into the rich history of Larimer Square and Dana’s lasting impact. Enjoy live sets throughout the afternoon from the Annie Booth Quartet and Keith Oxman Quartet, and join us in celebrating Dana.

Please let us know if you’re planning to attend. Guests who RSVP will receive a complimentary glass of champagne, with a non-alcoholic option available. We look forward to celebrating with you on the Square.
