The Biennial of the Americas is a cultural and civic organization that aims to connect the Americas, elevate Denver as an international city of intellectual and cultural engagement, and catalyze action through dialogue and cultural exchange. Founded in 2009 and based in the United States, the Biennial of the Americas brings together business, cultural, and civic interests from across the Americas to build lasting relationships and inspire action through dialogue and art. The organization's mission is to connect the people of Denver with one another and with the Americas by bringing together inspiring artists, innovators, leaders, and experts from North, South, and Central America and the Caribbean. Through talks, workshops, art exhibitions, and events, the Biennial of the Americas aims to enable cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary conversations to generate new connections and solutions.
