Dynamic Arts is a free program offering high school students from the Roaring Fork Valley the opportunity to develop their unique artistic voices through specialized art-making activities, studio visits with working artists, gallery and museum tours, critical discussion, creative analysis, and reflection.

Students will join this program as a cohort, fostering camaraderie and dialogue amongst participants. All teens seeking more exposure to art or an opportunity to grow their practice are encouraged to apply.

The Dynamic Arts program will be divided into two sessions—fall and spring. Each session will consist of approximately ten sessions. Students in either session are required to participate in 80% of the scheduled events in their session. Transportation cost assistance is available.

This program is open to all high school students from the Roaring Fork Valley, including Aspen, Snowmass Village, Basalt, Carbondale, and Glenwood Springs.

Participating students are eligible for a scholarship of $1,000, awarded for a high level of participation in the program. Scholarships may be used for future tuition, travel expenses, or other activities related to meeting their goals. For more information about the program or scholarships, please email education@aspenartmuseum.org.
