About Us

Located on nearly eight acres in the heart of town, the Darien Community Association is a privately-funded nonprofit organization. Since our founding in 1923, we make a positive impact on our community through offering educational and cultural opportunities, connection, sustainability and public green spaces. The DCA is an award-winning event venue for corporate events and weddings. Our members, partners, neighbors and over 100 volunteers give back to our community, participate in special programs and make a lasting impact through volunteer opportunities and scholarships to Darien High School students.
