Join Us In Making a Meaningful Impact
Your support enables us to have a bigger hand in solving some of our world’s greatest challenges. There are many areas and programs to support -the Depot Project, our community outreach, scholarship program or hosting a scientist. Contributions of all sizes are appreciated.
Home Sweet Home
Telluride Science successfully preserved the Depot, an iconic National Historic Landmark, providing both a year-round home for Telluride Science and a valuable resource for the community. Thanks to the generous support of our donors, we purchased The Depot in October 2020, allowing us to expand our workshop programming and further extend Telluride Science’s global impact on scientific and technological advancements. With the Telluride Innovation Center making its grand debut in July 2024, we are now focused on completing our fundraising efforts to keep interest costs low. Naming opportunities are still available—contact Mark for more information.
Community Outreach
To accelerate science and innovation on a global scale, Telluride Science must keep Telluride as affordable as possible so scientists can afford to come. In return, the organization is forced to operate on a very lean annual budget, while also financially supporting outreach programming like Town Talks and other interesting lectures and presentations. Your support can not only help to sustain science in Telluride, but also allow Telluride Science to continue to offer and expand this valued community programming.
Scholarships & School Funds
The young scientists who are talented enough to be invited to Telluride Science workshops early in their career, eventually become the future of the organization. To keep Telluride affordable for this next generation of scientific and engineering thought leaders, Telluride Science offers the following scholarships to outstanding graduate students and postdoctoral fellows:
- R. Stephen Berry Postdoctoral Fellowship
- Peter Salamon Award
- Paul Barbara Fellowship
Telluride School on Theoretical Chemistry (TSTC) Endowment Fund – TSTC, founded by University of Utah’s Jack Simons, was Telluride Science’s original and flagship graduate-level summer school. This endowment biannually supports 28 graduate students with fundamental training in theoretical chemistry research.
