ANDERSON RANCH CAMPUS & AREA GENERAL INFORMATION Anderson Ranch Arts Center is nestled among the high peaks of the Rocky Mountains in the resort community of Snowmass Village, Colo. Eighteen minutes from Aspen and 160 miles west of Denver, the Ranch sits at the head of the Brush Creek Valley, 8,200 feet in elevation. The Ranch is comprised of 14 ranch buildings on five beautifully kept acres. Workshops are held in fully-equipped studios. Students in all disciplines have opportunities to meet together on campus over meals in the café, in the library, in the store and at gallery openings, exhibitions and on-campus events. The studios are designed to encourage access, inspiration and the interchange of ideas. We offer an active public events program consisting of high-quality presentations on visual arts in all of its subject areas. Several times during the week throughout the summer, faculty, visiting artists and Featured Artists share images of their work and discuss their inspirations. Workshop participants are encouraged to attend on-campus talks and lectures, which are free and open to the public. Our Patton-Malott and Gartner Galleries showcase works by Anderson Ranch local and Colorado artists, with receptions scheduled throughout the workshop season. cover image: Summer Intern Jessica Van Flatteren learns from photographer and photojournalist Ed Kashi. © Rachel DeBoard
