Open Calls to Artists & Makers

  • Founded in 2020, Augment Music Project is dedicated to supporting the local music scene in the Telluride area. We believe that the vibrancy of Telluride's music scene extends beyond the major festivals and includes a very talented group of musicians who call this area home.

    Augment is committed to community impact through music, evidenced in our annual grant program and the live music opportunities we provide to local musicians.

    Since 2023, Augment Music Project has offered funding through Telluride Arts annual grant program, providing the funding and grant committee for the music category. Our review and selection process aligns with the broader goals of the grant program, with a strong emphasis on the community impact of each application.
