Cultural Events Calendar

Join us for an evening with Ron Speaker, founder of The Finance Camp, along with three high school students who participated in camp. Together, they’ll share essential investing concepts and what they’ve learned about building financial knowledge at a young age.

This free event is open to all Roaring Fork Valley high school students. No prior experience is required—you’ll leave equipped with knowledge of how investing works and how it can shape your future.

Registration is required at thefinancecamp.com

Join Aspen local Megan DiSabatino for a restorative sound journey and magical evening forest bathing in nature at Hallam Lake. Slow down and reconnect as we deeply relax and breathe, bathing in the healing sound frequency of the natural world and singing crystal bowls, Tibetan bowls, chimes, gongs and drums, and soak up the beauty and wonder of the meadows and forests around Hallam Lake. We’ll engage all of our senses as we explore the trees, wildflowers, meadow grasses and icy waters of the Roaring Fork River.

First Draft: A Dialogue on Writing is a literary podcast produced and hosted by Mitzi Rapkin. Each week the podcast features an in-depth interview with a fiction, non-fiction, essay, or poetry writer. The show is equal parts investigation into the craft of writing and conversation about the topics of an author’s work.

With little evidence, would-be author P.J. Larkin serves a “nibble” on the trendy new social-media app Crave, accusing editor George Dunn of stealing the novel she submitted to him for publication. The nibble shoots to the top of the site’s Popular Menu Items and before you can say “unpaid literary labor,” George is embroiled in a scandal, his job and book deal in jeopardy. P.J.’s novel is snapped up amid the publicity, but has she revealed her sister Mia’s secrets in the book? Some diners on Crave think so, and now it’s P.J.’s turn to feel the public’s scorn. Told in the humorous vein of Where’d You Go, Bernadette?, A Complete Fiction examines the very serious questions of who has a right to tell a story, and has cancel culture gone too far in our social media-drenched world?

Free. Please RSVP.
