The Telluride Arts’ Diversity Grant is dedicated to amplifying the voices of artists from diverse backgrounds. The grant seeks to foster the expansion of aesthetic, social, and political understanding through increased engagement with a multitude of viewpoints and diverse sensibilities.
Funds support individual artists working in the visual, media, performing and literary arts. Artist projects may include (but are not limited to) the development, creation, completion or presentation of new work; and professional development such as conferences, workshops, residencies, and classes.
Telluride Arts can provide additional support by offering our galleries and spaces, marketing, and other resources as available.
