Aspen Art Museum was the place to be for apres-ski on Dec. 30, with the annual winter benefit set on the rooftop overlooking town. More than 300 guests gathered at the Slopeside Soirée to support the museum’s educational programs and initiatives.
Co-chaired by Alexander Hankin, Sterling McDavid, and Makenzie Moon Phelan, the soirée successfully raised vital funds while offering an evening of art, celebration, and community. Guests sipped champagne and cocktails, enjoyed hors d’oeuvres and assorted desserts, connecting with fellow art enthusiasts and patrons, and danced to the beats of Natti as the opener and French DJ Cedric Gervais as the headliner outfitted in Moncler, one of the event sponsors.
Additional support was provided by Chase Sapphire Reserve, entertainment was underwritten by Deborah & Daniel Glass, desserts and confections were generously donated by Rayo Events, and additional sponsors included The Snow Lodge, Pearl Street Caviar, Kemo Sabe, CULTURED, and Lalo Spirits.
Proceeds from The Slopeside Soirée directly support the Aspen Art Museum’s educational initiatives, such as the Youth Art Expo, helping to ensure that art remains accessible, inclusive, and inspiring for local residents, students, and visitors alike. Visit aspenartmuseum.org.
