Snowmass Tourism, The Collective and the Aspen Skiing Co. welcome all to Snowmass ÂVillage this holiday season with a lineup of safe and fun activities for the whole family. But we all need to do our part this winter, be aware of socially distancing and wear a mask, please.
âWe have put in a lot of work to do events on a small scale, but safely,â said The Collective and Plaza Manager Sarah Sanders.
âWe have started all of our winter programming this week. Everything is limited to 20 people or less, and masks are required.â
Itâs a season like no other because of the pandemic.
Each week, we pick out our favorite and not-so-favorite tweets (at least those that are printable) about Aspen and display them on Sunday’s page A2.

“It is beautiful and it’s beguiling. It is attractive,” says Anthony Rowe, an artist with the creative collective Squidsoup. “And we hope it makes you forget about this COVID crap that’s going on at the moment if for a moment.”
