In 1891, right here in Telluride, history was made as the first alternating current power plant was constructed. Today, the Telluride Tech Fest celebrates past, present and future achievements in the technical and industrial world. Intriguing lectures and exhibitions take place throughout the weekend, with honor paid to electrifying legends like L.L. Nunn, Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse, as well as present-day masterminds. www.telluridetechfestival.com, (970) 728-7000
