DanceAspen continued with its busy summer programming on Wednesday by hosting its “Golden Hour” performance at the Holden/Marolt Mining & Ranching Museum in Aspen. The exclusive Summit Society event was put on in partnership with the Aspen Historical Society.
Next for DanceAspen is its annual “Take Flight” showcase on Tuesday at the Hotel Jerome, where they pair specific wines with specific dances. Coming up on Friday, July 18, is their “Moonlit Masquerade” gala, again at the Hotel Jerome.
