The Annual Project
The centerpiece of House life is
an annual community-based project that brings issues of
governance and public involvement to life for members of
Telluride House. The project integrates direct
service with research and analysis, aiming to improve public
life in the Ann Arbor area. Through the project housemembers
have an opportunity to explore the intersections of community
involvement, self-government and intellectual inquiry. Each
year's House executes its own project while selecting and
planning a project for the following year. Project proposals
are developed in collaboration with Telluride Association, which
approves the proposal and budget at its annual Convention in
June. Since Telluride Association fully funds the House project
each year, no fund-raising is necessary. All housemembers
are expected to contribute to the project each year.
