32nd Annual Crestone Energy Fair 

 
RECONNECT: Self...Village...Nature
August 28 & 29, 2021

We hope you can join us for this year's Crestone Energy Fair but we will also be livestreaming the event in case you can't make it in person or would like to watch at a later date.  We apologize for posting the wrong link for the Home Survey & Tour Application in our last newsletter, please see new information below.  It is critical that we collect information on our natural building and non-traditional homes, especially with the current housing shortage. 

We have also added our upcoming Community Volunteer Days and are recruiting artists to create a Community Mural out at the venue site. You will also find links for Workshop & Vending Applications, Sponsorship Packages and our Rainbow Lightning Kids Area.

"One of the jewels of Crestone that I love so much is the amazing architecture that has been realized here. It is truly inspiring what a human mind can imagine and then build. For decades, Crestone has been a place of freedom for creativity in the home building process and we are concerned that many builders are not taking the natural environment and our resources into consideration.  We would really appreciate it if everyone could take this survey and help us get an understanding of where the path of home building has come from and where it is going. There are so many beautiful homes here and I hope to start archiving the stories behind them. Please feel free to be as detailed as you like and only share what you are comfortable with.
