Call for Teaching Artists!
The Mancos Creative District and Mancos Public Library are thrilled to announce that we’ve received a Folk and Traditional Arts Project Grant from Colorado Creative Industries!
This grant helps us honor Colorado’s cultural heritage while shaping a vibrant creative future by creating fun, new creative classes in our community.
We are currently seeking four Mancos Valley creatives who would like to teach a craft or art form from different cultural traditions. Teaching artists will be paid a stipend and supported to create a class to be hosted at the Mancos Public Library between January and June of 2025.
If you are interested in participating please submit an application of interest below. If you have questions, contact Jody Chapel, [email protected]

Mancos, Colorado at the intersection of art and adventure, lies between the majestic La Plata Mountains and the mysterious grandeur of Mesa Verde and is home to countless artists, ranchers, inventors, craftsmen, foodies, makers, growers, and more.
The Mancos Creative District spans several blocks in the historic downtown area of town and is home to galleries, artisan cooperatives, an historic opera house, a thriving common press, late 1800’s buildings, and home to our myriad of cowboys, craftsmen, artists, musicians, brewers, chefs, farmers and makers.
Mancos – Where art and adventure await you!
