Youth Art Expo

Thank you to all of the participants!
This exhibition would not have been possible without your amazing effort!
We look forward to welcoming you back to our 2025 Youth Art Expo!

The Aspen Art Museum is happy to announce the Youth Art Expo, a multifaceted exhibition of work created by K–12 students alongside dynamic puppetry performances and film.

All Roaring Fork Valley students are invited to exhibit their creations at the museum and participate in workshops offered by visiting puppetry artists and museum educators.

We are immensely grateful to all the educators who have partnered with us to bring this exhibition to life. This project would not be possible without the collaboration of the Aspen Art Museum Education team, Exhibitions team, Guide and Visitor Services team, Security team, and the entire staff.

Please email us at education@aspenartmuseum.org for more information.
