Tellurude Children Arts & Fire
Coldharbour Institute and Telluride Fire Festival collaborate each year to bring a STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) program which engages historically underrepresented (economically, racially, physically) students from three very rural areas of Colorado and brings them to Telluride for two weekends. In November they bring them first to work in the Deep Creek Experimental Mine with experienced burner artists who develop and execute an amazing burn sculpture together. In January, they bring them back to exhibit at the Telluride Fire Festival and experience the wonder of all the artists and visitors.
