Telluride Historical Museum

Join us tonight in both Mountain Village and at Telluride Arts HQ to see the unveiling of this community art project!

Join us as we celebrate the opening of This Is Colorado (In One Square Foot), a community art project created by and for San Miguel County.

Presented by Telluride Arts and the Telluride Historical Museum , with support from TMVOA, the project invited community members to respond to one simple question:

What does being a Coloradan mean to you?

More than 100 artworks will be exhibited across two locations, creating a powerful mosaic of perspectives, stories, landscapes, and identities as part of Colorado’s 150th Anniversary and the United States’ 250th Anniversary celebrations.

📅 Opens June 24
📍 Telluride Arts HQ Gallery (Telluride)
📍 Telluride Properties on the Plaza (Mountain Village)

Find your canvas, explore the exhibition, and vote for your favorite artwork in the People’s Choice Award. ✨
