The Dana Crawford Awards Dinner is Colorado's largest statewide preservation awards assembly, honoring individuals and organizations who have made a significant contribution toward preserving Colorado's built history. The evening's namesake is Dana Crawford, a pioneer in saving historic buildings that were viewed as derelict eyesores and in proving that their restoration makes economic sense. Each year Colorado honors the efforts of individuals, projects, and organizations that have made exemplary contributions to the saving of Colorado's built heritage. Starting in 1988 with the State Honor Awards and adding the Dana Crawford Award in 1990, we have recognized accomplishments in the areas of preservation, rehabilitation, promotion, philanthropy and leadership.
