Aspen Art Museum

Open to local arts organizations and their staffs

Moving between our individual and collective vocalities, we find unexpected poetics, multiple modes of expression, and listening as an aspect of the voice itself.

No previous artistic or vocal experience required. All are welcome.

Interested in attending? Contact Teresa Booth Brown at Education@aspenartmuseum.org
