Art Show on Friday at 11:45AM
Grades 1st + (going into 2026/2027 school year)

Get ready to zoom in and make art that shimmers! Have you ever looked closely at a butterfly wing, snake scales, or a dragonfly’s see-through wings? Animals are covered in incredible patterns—and you’ll get to recreate them in your own bold way. You’ll draw, color, paint, and collage using all kinds of paper (even clear cellophane!), plus markers, crayons, glitter, and more. Make spots, stripes, swirls, and scales, then take home a collection of wild, beautiful pattern masterpieces!

Monday – Friday, 9:30AM – 3:30PM
Grades 5 – 8
Held at Rock Bottom Ranch

The Art of the Harvest is a program where art, agriculture, and imagination come together. You’ll use vegetables from the ranch to create, carve, dye, print, and more. When you aren’t making art using vegetables, you’ll have the opportunity to play a role in our vegetable production.

Registration through ACES (opens February 19). https://aspennature.org/activity/aces-summer-camp-2026/

"The Way is Not a Way But a Place" by Chloe Wildwerding
This is a solo exhibition by mixed media artist Chloe Wilwerding blends photography, embroidery, and quilting into textile portraits of place. Through references to merit badges and outdoor gear, the show proposes a shift from achievement in nature towards wonder, intimacy, and attention to the landscape.

GEOart Collective: Cracks, Layers, Water
The GEOart Collective is an international consortium of artists who share a love and fascination of nature and the geosciences. Each artist in our group brings a unique set of skills in the world of textile and mixed media. Many of us create our own fabrics, threads and papers through the use of dye, paint and print. Artists in the GEOart Collective have exhibited their work locally, nationally and internationally.

Join us for the opening reception Thursday (yes, Thursday), July 9, from 5:00-7:00pm with an artist talk beginning at 5:30pm. Thank you to Wilderness Workshop for generously sponsoring these exhibitions and for your meaningful work in protecting wilderness, water, and wildlife in Western Colorado!

Get ready for giggles, gasps, and talking puppets! Joshua’s high-energy show brings the art of ventriloquism to life with a hilarious cast of puppet characters—each bursting with personality, humor, and heart.

But the fun doesn’t stop there! This one-of-a-kind performance also features magic, juggling, plenty of audience participation, and a whole lot of imagination. Kids ages 3–10 will be wide-eyed and laughing as Joshua’s puppets crack jokes, pull off mind-blowing magic tricks, and turn the audience into part of the show. It’s a magical, laughter-filled experience you won’t want to miss!

¡Prepárate para reír, gritar, sorprenderte y disfrutar de marionetas parlantes! El dinámico show de Joshua trae el arte del ventriloquismo a la vida con un reparto divertidísimo de marionetas — cada una rebosante de personalidad, sentido del humor y corazón.

¡Pero la diversión no termina aquí! Este espectáculo, único en su género, también presenta magia, malabares, constante participación por parte del público y muchísima imaginación. Las personitas entre los 3 y los 10 años de edad se mantendrán con los ojos muy abiertos y riendo todo el tiempo, mientras las marionetas de Josh cuentan chistes, realizan alucinantes trucos de magia y convierten al público en parte del show. ¡Es una experiencia mágica y llena de risas que no querrás perderte!

Knitters and crocheters (and any other yarn workers) come together to work on and discuss projects, yarn, and techniques. Open to all; bring your own supplies and works-in-progress.

Las personas que disfrutan del tejido, ya sea con ganchos o agujas (y cualquier tipo de trabajo con estambre), se reúnen para trabajar en diversos proyectos y dialogar al respecto, además de conversar sobre las técnicas empleadas y los tipos de estambre utilizados. Es una actividad abierta para todas las personas. Trae tus propios materiales y los proyectos en los que estés trabajando.
