TESTIMONIALS
"This TEDxTalk is from a wonder-full woman I am glad to know. Marcie Telander's family-community is one of my favorite places on the planet. From a physical point of view, it is stunningly beautiful there, but the real beauty of Crested Butte lies in the spirit and fierce protection its people share for their community." - Beth Harris, naturalist and wildlife photographer.

"I so enjoyed Marcie's TEDx Talk for its insight into our human connectivity and the joy it can bring. Good work! ~ Jim Loveridge, Financial expert and community theatre artist
~
"Thanks for sharing this TEDx Talk. It reaffirms fo me something I came to realize as I grew older, that 'place' is a verb--a making woven from memory and vision and perpetuated by the stories we inherit, add to and pass on." ~Nicole Spenser
~
"Marcie...nice soul work! Conceptualizing and then articulating to action the essence of community spirit seems possible only to those capable of discerning Life in and around us. Very compelling lecture on community life and the map of myth. Growing where we are replanted as seeds blown in the wind of fate is a beautiful thing." ~ Greg Hankins, CEO/Owner Synergy Therapies and Synergy Solutions
~
"This work is so important to maintain the unique celebrations that bond us as a community, bond us to our history, and bond us to our connection to this land, this ecosystem and honoring our place in it. So few communities today understand nor respect their interdependence on the land and what it provides to sustain us and the elements of place we value and how we have to sustain and honor it in return for that sacred balance. (Through the celebrations Marcie has created) we share how rare, unique and special we are in these ways~and it's one of those understated reasons--operating in the background-- that make this place what so many of us are drawn to and call "home." It's something we feel as soon as we arrive, and the spirit of Vinotok, our Harvest Heritage Festival brings us back to that connection, that relationship, as we take in all that we've been given through the spring and summer, and prepare to harvest and rest. It's so essential that we continue to pay tribute and be present in this way ~ to maintain the sweet spirit of this rare gem of a "home." ~ Ann Auben Gibson, Exec. Director of Adventure Wellness, Nutrition Specialist, Guide, Life Coach
~
For the past 40 years I have offered consultations & on-site guidance to communities, businesses and groups in developing the experiential process of co-creating Earth-honoring programs--in their own home towns.
Through Community Animation programs we can:
**Practice ecopsychology, transpersonal healing, narrative and living theatre therapies, environmental awareness and advocacy
**more safely process social and environmental concerns through
existing local arts & traditions.
**enhance positive community identity, bridging cultural, generational
and ideological differences through the power of personal story-
sharing events.
**create mentorship by identifying and celebrating local living artists,
culture and heritage.
**re-animate and enliven our relationship with the powerful & sacred
spirit of place in local sites & locations in nature
**share multi-cultural, seasonal festivities of transformation and
regeneration.
**release negative societal stories and create a renewed and healing
communal mythology for all ages to share.
I am an elder of the eco-justice movement, a nationally-known storyteller, ritualist and interdisciplinary arts specialist and consultant. I have been privileged to create Earth-awareness celebrations and community animation events across the country, Mexico and Europe based on the oral narratives, myths and legends of the places and people of all ages who live there.
In 1985, I created VINOTOK with the Elders and community members of my hometown, Crested Butte, CO. This is Crested Butte's annual heritage festival and storytelling celebration. It was designed as a safe, enlivening way to bring the disparate local mining and ranching communites together with more recent arrivals. USA TODAY named Vinotok, "One of the best small-town festivals in America."
