Aspen Art Museum
The Aspen Art Museum is a non-collecting institution presenting the newest, most important evolutions in international contemporary art. Our innovative and timely exhibitions, education and public programs, immersive activities, and community happenings actively engage audiences in thought-provoking experiences of art, culture, and society.
In 1976, a City of Aspen vote led to the acquisition and development of an out-of-use building at 590 North Mill Street that became the Aspen Art Museum’s first home until 2014. Built in 1888, the Hunter Creek Power Plant first served the city’s silver mining operations while also enabling Aspen to be the first city west of the Mississippi to have streetlights powered by hydroelectric energy. Supporting a recommendation that an art space would offer the most creative and adaptive community service, the City assisted efforts to rehabilitate the disused structure. By November 1977, the Aspen Center for the Visual Arts (ACVA) was incorporated within the state of Colorado, and in August 1978, the ACVA board selected its first director, Philip Yenawine. https://www.aspenartmuseum.org/about

Moab-Arches
4 December 2023
In Moab you will feel like your are in a different planet!Arches National Park is amazing. It's one of those places you need to experience yourself.Delicate Arch is so massive and charming. The hike is short enough to allow for other explorations throughout the day, but also challenging enough to be considered a great workout. The hike took about 1.5 hours to complete, so worth it.If hiking isn't your thing, there are many scenic driving routes for viewing some of the park's largest arches. They even have a viewpoint with a shorter walking distance for checking out Delicate Arch if you can't do the hike.There also a beutiful restaurant with a gret view called "Sunset", you may want to go around 4pm and stay until 7pm.
