This early childhood program provides playful exploration of storytelling for young audiences with their parents or caregivers. Held once a month, these free community workshops explore visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile experiences of narratives in art while building visual literacy and art appreciation.
This monthlong program for kids at the 5–8 grade level is held weekly at the Aspen Art Museum. Taking place after school most Tuesdays from 3:30–5 p.m., these open-choice workshops provide the creative room for kids to explore who they are through individual and collaborative projects and art. Led by museum educators and teaching artists, participants have direct access to contemporary artists, artworks, and themes.

This monthlong program for kids at the K–4 grade level is held weekly at the Aspen Art Museum. Taking place after school most Wednesdays from 2:30–4 p.m., these workshops recognize the value of exposing children to the arts at an early age and use the artist’s process as an educational tool. Museum educators and teaching artists lead classes that include activities in the gallery and take-home projects.
Playing off the museum’s series “I Don’t Get It,” this four-part workshop invites participants to confront what they wish they knew about contemporary art, but were afraid to ask. Led by AAM Educator Katie Bannon and Learning Director Michelle Dezember, these workshops meet every Wednesday evening in January with time in both the galleries and the workshop.
Join us for an evening of “I Don’t Get It,” an interactive, open-forum tour of Gabriel Kuri’s exhibition, followed by a complimentary sampling of soup served up in the museum’s café, SO. Presented as part of the Wintersköl™ festival.
