SMALL GRANTS
FUNDING FOR PROJECTS and PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
$300-$2,000
The Telluride Arts Small Grants program is a long term investment to develop the expertise of local artists. Funds support individual artists working in the visual, media, performing and literary arts.
Artist projects may include the development, creation, completion or presentation of new work; and professional development such as conferences, workshops, residencies and classes. Artists are required to share work with the people of Telluride through a performance, publication, exhibit, screening, or a simple written or photo documentation of the project, in print or online.
Augment Grants
Funding for local musicians
$300-$2,000
Augment is a local nonprofit and umbrella program of Telluride Arts that exists to foster and support the music culture of the greater Telluride region. This year Augment is teaming up with Telluride Arts to offer Small Grants to a handful of local musicians to help fund their musical endeavors. Augment will be offering up to $2000 to each recipient and these funds can be used for anything from a new album project or music video to attending a music camp to help develop skills. The only caveat is that the funds and the project that they support have to come back to benefit the Telluride community in some way.
