Aspen Art Museum

Story Art is a community outreach program that provides playful exploration of storytelling for young audiences with their parents or caregivers. This free community program builds visual literacy and art appreciation in the Basalt Regional Library and Carbondale Branch Library.

Join us on Thursday, November 3, at 6 p.m., for the Opening Reception for our fall exhibitions: Julian Schnabel Plate Paintings 1978–86, Mary Ramsden’s (In / It), and Danh Võ’s exhibition. There is a 5 p.m. members’ walkthrough with AAM Nancy and Bob Magoon CEO and Director, Heidi Zuckerman.

Active Art invites seniors to engage in the social dimensions of art. Museum educators bring free, memory-enhancing activities to the assisted living communities of Whitcomb Terrace in Aspen and Heritage Park in Carbondale. Physically independent seniors are invited for monthly gatherings at the Aspen Art Museum, where drawing activities and free food and refreshments are offered at SO, the AAM’s Andrea and James Gordon Café.
