Such a great venue for unique and inspiring performances & films! I had a wonderful time at the Julia Keefe Indigenous Jazz Ensemble and also at MountainFilm. I love how the Wheeler is highlighting indigenous and latino voices, musicians, artists, creatives, and outdoors people! Both events were entertaining and educational.

Congratulations to the leadership and every volunteer, speaker, etc., at the first-ever Aspen Literary Festival. The experience was broadening, enlightening, and encouraging to this new writer. I was struck especially by the emotional honesty of each speaker, who described the writing process, as well as their challenges and victories. I hope this continues every year and look forward to returning, ready to attend talks at the Library or Wheeler Opera House. The fact that it was scheduled for this stunning weekend of Fall color in Aspen was one of the many reasons it was a smashing success. A huge thanks and also to the independent book store that was such a part of the festivities.

The Literary Festival was a fabulous event in a historic building surrounded by a gorgeous setting— those golden leaves! Especially loved hearing from female authors and moderator. Looking forward to next year already!

This has to be one of the coolest historic performing arts venues in the country. We saw Legend Has It here hosted by Teton Gravity Research, I also plan on coming back for Warren Miller Films and to see Dance Aspen perform. Their programming is awesome, and the building itself is beautifully restored and every single detail is so pristine. I look forward to attending more shows here in the future, its a really intimate venue. Pro tip: come early before the show if you want to hit the bar before your show, and also the balcony tends to fill up faster than the lower levels. Open seating, no assigned seats here.
