An Immersive art Takeover!

The Ah Haa School for the Arts hosts the annual HAHA – a participatory and interactive community event that is a massive, building-wide immersive art installation where each space within the Silverjack Building in Telluride, Co is taken over by a different artist. Whether a single art piece, a full room installation, video, performance and new media content, or a riveting story — we celebrate each artist’s vision, and encourage all visitors to actively engage with the art!
Designed to be accessible to participants of all ages, this immersive experience takes place annually over 3 days in July with over 2,000 participants attending the HAHA each year. Ah Haa’s mission is to create community and joy through art. We are committed to creating opportunities for a diverse group of makers to participate. HAHA is committed to supporting the creative freedom of local, national, and international artists. Ah Haa celebrates equity and inclusion and encourages all marginalized folkx to apply. HAHA artists are also provided outreach opportunities within the town of Telluride. Free participatory events and making activities lead by HAHA artists give the community an outlet for expression and instill a since of place.
HAHA artists are given logistical parameters, material stipend and creative carte blanche to design and implement an immersive experience that fully reflects their creative practice.
HAHA selected artists have been featured by NPR, The Los Angeles Times, TEDx, TAB, New York Times, SXSW and in locations like The White House, Victoria & Albert Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, Meow Wolf, community art centers, and national and international exhibitions.
