Adjourn
2007 Aspen Arts Festival
July 21 - 22, 2007
Aspen Chamber Resort Association & Howard Alan Events
The Aspen Chamber Resort Association & Howard Alan Events will bring the 5th
Annual Aspen Arts Festival to Wagner Park in Aspen, July 21-22, 2007. The
festival brings approximately 200 vendors displaying paintings, photography, fine
art, jewelry, sculptures, ceramics & much more. The Aspen Arts Festival attracts
approximately 5,000 visitors to Aspen each year.
Due to the over use of Wagner Park & the construction along Monarch Street, the
ACRA has looked into other locations & dates for the festival. The ACRA met
with the City of Aspen Special Events Committee in November 2006 to discuss
other possibilities. As recommended by the Committee, the ACRA would like to
meet with the CCLC to discuss the possibility of moving the Arts Festival out of
Wagner Park & into the streets in downtown Aspen. The ACRA would also like
to discuss the future dates & street locations for the Arts Festival for 2008 &
beyond.
