Music in the Mountains is known for bringing world-class classical music and education to the Four Corners—but its impact doesn’t stop at the stage.

As a nonprofit partner of Durango Wine Experience in 2024, the organization lent necessary volunteer support while connecting with new faces during the event’s Friday Walkabout and Saturday Grand Tasting.

Durango Wine Experience not only brings the community together each year to enjoy a wide-array of wines, spirits and delicious food– It promotes the incredible nonprofits that genuinely make Southwest Colorado one of the most amazing places to live.

This partnership speaks to the spirit of mutual support that keeps our community strong, inspired, and joyfully connected.

Thank you to Music in the Mountains for bringing beautiful music to our communities, and for your much-needed help during Durango Wine Experience.
