The Aspen Hall of Fame and the Pitkin County Library will be hosting a free “Livestream” of the 2025 Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Sunday, April 13 at 7:00 pm. The community is invited to come and participate virtually in the celebration and enjoy refreshments in the Library’s Dunaway Community Meeting Room.

The banquet takes place at the Hotel Jerome and is sold out. The 2025 inductees are Bob and Ruth Wade, passionate outdoor enthusiasts who have created a legacy of stewardship and outdoor education; Paul Andersen, professional writer and founder of “Huts for Vets”; and Erin Fernandez Ely, former Pitkin County judge who approached the legal system in a humanistic manner.

During the celebration, short videos about each inductee showcase their lives and their contributions to Aspen to earn them a place in the Aspen Hall of Fame.

Families are encouraged to come to the event with their children to learn about the people who have given back so much to the community.

Please use the East Entrance for the Dunaway Community Meeting Room as this event occurs outside of regular library hours.
