Aspen Music Festival and School
Since its inception in 1949, the Aspen Music Festival and School has made our town a magnet for the world's best classically trained musicians and performers. Each summer brings some 300 individual classical music events, as well as an influx of students from ages 10 to 35, who perform throughout the town in the evenings.
Jazz Aspen Snowmass
What started as a three-day festival in 1991 has blossomed into a year-round cultural event centered on jazz performances as well as music education. In June, catch live shows in downtown Aspen, and in September, get tickets for Labor Day weekend performances in Snowmass, with big-name artists taking the stage in Town Park.
Anderson Ranch Art Center
Artists from around the globe flock to this art center off Owl Creek Road in Snowmass because of its multi-discipline, contemporary art workshops, master classes, events, artist conversation series, and more. The center recently celebrated its 50th anniversary.
Throughout our resort, you will find art installations that celebrate the way Aspen rejuvenates our mind, body and spirit. Whether its the colorful mural at Elk Camp Restaurant (pictured), our annual art on our lift tickets, or Walter Niedermayr’s numerous Aspen Series photographic installations, you’ll regularly discover “art in unexpected places.
