telluride festival of the arts



Celebrating the Visual and Culinary Arts
August 17, 18, 19, 2012
Telluride Mountain Village, Colorado


Continuing its mission of providing access to art experiences, the Cherry Creek Arts Festival (CCAF) produces the Telluride Festival of the Arts (TFA). Culinary enthusiasts and fine art aficionados come together to share a common passion for food, art and entertainment.

TFA hosts national and regional professional visual artists from across the United States in a

one-of-a-kind outdoor exhibition nestled in a box canyon surrounded by the majestic 13,000ft peaks

of San Juan Mountains. Highlights of the festival include the signature Grand Tasting and a nationally juried art show featuring artists in 13 different media categories including: ceramics, digital art, drawing, fiber, glass, graphics and printmaking, jewelry, metal-works, mixed media, painting, photography, sculpture and wood.


The art show is free admission. At the signature Grand Tasting, patrons enjoy the remarkable tastes of local restaurants, breweries, fine wineries and spirits for an evening of culinary and social celebration!

Beginning Saturday, August 18 Grand Tasting tickets will only be able for purchase in Telluride Mountain Village at the Main Information Tent for $85.00. No tickets will be issued for the Grand Tasting; wristbands will be issued as admission. Information and schedule for 2012 will be updated as available. Please email with any questions, management@cherryarts.org.
