Crestone Films created a short movie about Crestone, which examines many aspects of Crestone today, the arts, the community, the Spiritual Centers, and the relationship they all share with nature.
A very long time ago, the Native-Americans had a name for Crestone. It was O-taynang, which meant a place of the heart.
Please enjoy Crestone, "A Place of the Heart".❤️
Crestone Films created this piece for the Crestone Creative District to help promote responsible tourism in our 'place of the heart'.
Funding was provided to the creative arts district by the Saguache County Tourism Council and by a Saguache County Sales Tax Grant from the Saguache County Board of County Commissioners. The Crestone Creative District exists with the generous support of Colorado Creative Industries and the Boettcher Foundation.
