Art and Culture in Aspen

"In the late 1800s, as the mining camp that had settled what is now Aspen began to flounder, the town needed a rich investor and developer to come in and push it forward. Jerome B. Wheeler was that person, and his legacy lives on in the home he bought in Aspen’s West End. Although Jerome and his wife Harriet never actually lived in the house, it’s still set with the decor that it had when the couple arrived to begin Aspen’s transformation into what it is today. The upstairs, however, is more contemporary and features rotating exhibits covering Aspen’s history." - MATADOR_NETWORK

Always a fun time, and even though I was born and raised in Aspen, and lived here for 34 years, I always learn many new things. Their exhibits are well-thought out, timely, and interesting. The staff is absolutely stellar! Recommend to anyone wanting to go a little deeper into the Aspen story than just skiing or cruising downtown. They also do amazing tours in town! Today was the annual ice cream social, with a great performance (pictured).

Enjoyed this museum. Lots of information about the history of Aspen. And the woman working there was very passionate about sharing the information with us.

I don't often do museums. We went on Friday Oct. 15, 2021. Had the extreme pleasure of meeting Mrs.Click at the front desk. After an excellent introduction instruction on how best to enjoy the exhibits, she sent us up to enjoy the many offerings of historical Aspen. We have never been to Aspen so it was very interesting. Then when we made our way back to the first floor, she took the time to give us in depth informatioin that we did not see upstairs. Her interest and knowlege were evident. She truly made the visit memorable.

I always have a pleasant and enjoyable time at this Victorian era home. The 1st floor is set up as an authentic Victorian home. The docent is very knowledgeable. The upstairs offer a museum with rotating displays about the history of Aspen. This is a good place to get oriented to Aspen.

Every museum deserves a guide like Suzie, she was extremely enthusiastic and knowledgeable and has officially ruined future tours for me coz I'd be hard pressed to find a guide who can live up to her standard. The museum itself was gorgeous, has a restroom, you can touch a surprising amount of stuff (and sit on the chairs (!)). I'd budget at least an hour to check it out. At $10, well worth it.

Super cool museum. The guy there gave us an awesome tour/intro to the history of not only the mining area but aspen too. He knows a lot about the area for sure. There is so much interesting history in that museum. Super cool! Kids will love it too. They have a working steam engine.

Aspen's history comes alive and is well presented inside the museum. Upstairs they have 1000s of posters, photos, info boards and memorabilia that show Aspens history decade by decade. Our greeter/docent, Jane was a walking encyclopedia of fun facts and interesting stories about Aspen. It was easy to visualize Aspen's growth and how it evolved from humble beginnings as a poor mining town to the Aspen we all know as the place that only the very rich can afford to ski and play and live.

The museum does a fantastic job at giving you a glimpse of Aspen's history, segmented into different decades. Susie was working the front desk when we visited and was fantastic. Very knowledgeable about the history of Aspen and had lots of neat "folklore" stories to add. She also gave us some fantastic recommendations on some other things to do in Aspen that were a little more off the beaten path. Would definitely recommend coming here!

If you are in the area and looking for an indoor activity in downtown Aspen, it's worth stopping by. It's in the quiet residential area so we almost overlooked. We stopped by because it was close to where we stayed. It's a small museum but a lot of information and the beautiful house. The staff were not wearing masks but it is so everywhere in Aspen when we visited in late June, 2021.
