FESTIVAL NO PASS, NO PROBLEM.
The Aspen Institute has widely expanded its ticketed events, open to the public, as Spotlight Health and the Aspen Ideas Festival takes over town June 22 through July 1. There are public events running all day, every day featuring the best and brightest from politics, media, art, entertainment, science, medicine, industry and education. Robert Schenkken’s Trump-themed play “Building the Wall” will take the stage June 27 at Paepcke Auditorium, and nightly movies include a sneak preview screening of “Despicable Me 3” (June 26), “Chasing Coral” (June 29), and “An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power” (June 30). Panel discussions and public interviews range from a breakfast talk on the opioid epidemic (June 23) to “Late Show” bandleader Jon Batiste discussing the link between music and health (June 24). There will be experts talking about conservatism and Trump (June 26), Clarence B. Jones discussing Martin Luther King (June 27) and David Brooks on morality (June 27). Ideas Fest is hosting a citizen’s guide to impeachment (June 28) and podcast tapings of “Hidden Brain” and “Pod Save America” (June 29 and 30). If it’s all getting a little too heavy, go see “Saturday Night Live” Weekend Update anchors Michal Che and Colin Jost at the “Afternoon of Conversation” on June 28. Ticket prices range from free to $150, on sale at the Wheeler Opera House box office and at www.aspenshowtix.com
The Aspen Institute’s Spotlight Health and Aspen Ideas Festivals run through July 1, with public events daily.
CURRENTEVENTS THEATER
Theatre Aspen’s “Hairspray” has a preview show on Saturday, June 24, and opening night on Tuesday, June 27, at the Hurst Theatre in Rio Grande Park.
Singer Michael McDonald will return to the Jazz Aspen Snowmass June Experience on Friday, June 23.
POPULAR MUSIC GOOD MORNING, BALTIMORE! “Hairspray” is here. Theatre Aspen’s production of the Tony-winning Broadway musical smash starring Taylor Hartsfield in the lead as Tracy Turnblad, begins previews Saturday, June 24 and officially opens Tuesday, June 27. The endearingly upbeat tale of ’60s nostalgia, integration and bodypositivity has been adapted into a feature film and last winter became a must-see live TV event. But it’s never been shrink-wrapped into a cozy theater quite like the Hurst in Rio Grande Park, where the John Waters cult hit-turned Broadway smash will run all summer. Tickets are available at the Theatre Aspen box office at the Hurst and online at www.theatreaspen.org.
A CAVALCADE OF MUSIC LEGENDS are making their way through the Benedict Music Tent once again for the Jazz Aspen Snowmass June Experience, running June 23 through 25. Headliners include Jon Batiste & Stay Human and Michael McDonald on Friday night; Earth, Wind & Fire on Saturday night; and Lisa Fischer and Tower of Power on Sunday night. Out on the lawn, Jazz Aspen’s free party will be raging before the main-stage shows, with featured acts like the Arthur Lee Band, Morgan James, Paa Kow and local jam-banders Jes Grew.

SUMMERTIME SPLASH
1950s ASPEN
“ASPEN VISITORS WILL FIND 10 SWIM POOLS AT START OF SEASON,” announced the Aspen Times on June 3, 1960. “This summer when the tourist season reaches its peak, Aspen visitors will have 10 heated swimming pools at their disposal. One of the pools, the Aspen Pool, is public, the others are private installations belonging to individual lodges. Located at the corner of Galena and Durant, the public pool is slated to open for the season this weekend. Newest of the private pools is one nearing completion at the Highlander Lodge east of the city. Other lodges having pools are The Aspen Meadows, Villa Lamarr, The Smuggler, The Nugget, The Prospector, Ski Vu, The Blue Spruce and the Hotel Jerome. In addition to serving hotel guests, the Jerome pool is used as a swimming membership club for Aspen residents.” The photograph above shows the pool at the Hotel Jerome in the early 1950s. This photo and more can be found in the Aspen Historical Society archives at aspenhistory.org.

GEAR of the WEEK
by STEPHEN REGENOLD
RIDE ON: ELECTRIC-FAT BIKE FAT TIRES AND A MOTOR MAKE this new bike a veritable monster truck. The Electric Fat Bike, sold by Defiant Bicycles, is a niche offering that rides faster than anything in its class. The speed comes from a motor in the rear hub. But there is no throttle on the handlebars — a pedal-assist feature adds power as your feet crank and spin. With 4-inch-wide tires the bike can mow over stones and “float” in snow. Fat bikes are notoriously tank-like, and this model, at 50 pounds, is no exception. The 500-watt motor is added to overcome the mass, and a rider can crank easily to 20 mph on a Defiant bike. A big battery attaches to the frame. A dashboard display reveals speed, power outage (in watts) and battery life. In its highest settings, the battery lasts a couple rides, roughly 25 miles in my test. E-bikes and pedal-assist motors are not a new thing. But Defiant touts this model — both fat-tired and electric — as the first commerciallyavailable bike of its kind. Part dirt bike, part bicycle, the e-fat goes really fast, really easily. You get this pedaling bliss for a healthy $3,500. Who should buy the Electric Fat Bike? The company sells it as a car replacement for anyone looking to bike commute and arrive at the office sweat-free. It’s overkill for pavement and most cities. But the bike could be a good pick for commuters in northern climates, where snow keeps most riders off the road. For singletrack and mountain biking, a possible buyer is someone with compromised physical ability. The “assist” on the bike will enable anyone with bad knees or other issues to keep up with younger and healthier riders. A final candidate is someone looking straight up for pure fun. This bike brings huge smiles quickly to anyone who hops on. The big tread, wide grip and motor-enhanced, plow-through-it-all experience made me feel like a rolling god.

WINEINK
SO MANY WINES…
SOME SIPS FROM THE FOOD & WINE CLASSIC WINE EVENTS AND FESTIVALS can be challenging. On the one hand, there is the opportunity to taste many great wines in a short period of time. You can, in the course of a couple of hours, gain access to myriad grapes and wine styles, which you simply can’t do if you are, say, looking at labels in a wine shop. On the other hand, KELLY J. when tasting so many HAYES different wines in a concentrated time frame it is easy to become both confused and tongue tired. After a few glasses, the subtleties of the sauvignon and the semillon begin to blur between sips. The palate is a fairly gentle thing and bombarding it with varied flavors, while at the same time overwhelming your nose with decidedly disparate smells, can be overwhelming. So it is that each year I end up in a virtual puddle at the end of the Food & Wine Classic. There are so many wines poured, be it in seminars, the Grand Tasting tents, after parties and just among friends between scheduled events, that there is a sense of being conquered. “Dazed and confused” is a term that comes to mind. Ah, but as a professional I do keep some sense of order by writing notes, taking photographs and gathering written materials. So I thought I would share a few with you that I will likely remember and perhaps write about in future columns. Some are old friends, some are new to me, but all made a lasting impression. Let’s start with some of the pinots, because there were some really good ones. The Olivet Lane wines, from a picture perfect patch of dirt in the heart of the Russian River Valley are silky, aromatic and complex. This familyowned company also produces another label of Sonoma wines,

the eponymous Pellegrini. While a little different in composition, perhaps a bit more approachable, they are equally delicious. And I would be remiss if I did not mention another outstanding pinot noir from the Sonoma-based Benovia. I tasted their wines in the fog of battle in the tents and was initially star struck. But it was the 2014 Benovia “La Pommeraie” Pinot Noir, sourced from a Russian River Valley vineyard that once was formerly a Gravenstein apple orchard, that really harvested my attention. Poured during a seminar with Laura Werlin that paired wines with raw milk cheeses, the wine was sublime. A comer to be sure. Another pinot that appealed came from an urban winery in Portland, Oregon, from Welsh Family Wines, which is run by tech-runaways Dan Welsh and his wife Wendy Davis. Just three vintages in, they are making low intervention, accessible, foodfriendly pinot noir from a variety of vineyard sites in the Willamette Valley. They also poured me an interesting and unexpected Blaufränkisch. Nice people and nice wines. Let’s keep an eye out for this winery. And yes, in case you are wondering, they do pour wines other than pinot noir at the Classic. Rob Leventhal, an Aspen-based distributor, introduced me to a line of wines called McCauley Vineyard that is producing wines from vineyards with high-profile names like To Kalon and Bacigalupi. A joint venture between Mac Watson and Kirk Venge, I enjoyed their exquisite cabernet sauvignon, but was smitten by an Old Vine Zin sourced from Napa fruit. While we are in Napa, a new high-end, limited production winery called Nellcôte caught my eye. Two automotive themed cabernet sauvignons, a “Rallye 76” and a “500 Chevaux,” were powerful and stunning, but it was

a rosé of malbec and syrah from Mt. Veeder that was the most intriguing. This was proprietor Tyler Olbres’ first Classic foray, but I’m sure it will not be his last. Perhaps the hottest wine nation in the world right now is Portugal. Once known exclusively for the fortified port wines of the Douro Valley, that region and others, including the mountainous Dão, are producing still wines that are great values. New to me was a grape called Jaen. The Casa Americo Jaen (a 2015, I think) from the Dão DOC was bright on sight and had a fresh, fruit forward flavor profile. I will look forward to my next meeting with the grape. And then there was the Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneufdu-Pape Blanc 2014 poured at a luncheon at the Little Nell. And Food & Wine editor Ray Isle’s 2011 Bodegas Palacios Herencia Remondo Propriedad that was offered during the Rioja seminar. And…and…and… Kelly J. Hayes lives in the soon-to-be-designated appellation of Old Snowmass. He can be reached at malibukj@aol.com.
UNDER THE INFLUENCE LEEUWIN ESTATE 2013 ART SERIES CABERNET SAUVIGNON Perhaps my favorite wine festival moment took place over a decade ago on the Big Island of Hawaii. It involved a roast pig, a distinguished Aussie and a killer chardonnay. In the setting sun, the Aussie and I picked the pig and drank the wine as he told me about a mystical place called Margaret River in Western Australia. Vineyards surrounded by eucalyptis groves that ran straight to the sea. Beach breaks, point breaks and reef breaks. At one point I told the Aussie I was enjoying the wine. He said, “That’s great mate. I make it.” Turns out his name was Denis Horgan and he was the founder of Leeuwin Estate. For my final wine at this year’s Classic, I returned to Margaret River. I tasted the 2013 Art Series Cabernet Sauvignon. It was poured by Denis’s daughter, Rebecca. Fitting.

CHEF JUSTIN LISIUS from Rosenberg’s Bagels and Delicatessen in Denver didn’t need to explain his colorful full sleeve, which includes a gun, monsters, and saltshaker. (Admittedly, I was too busy swooning over his team’s smoked sturgeon at Heritage Fire—amazing!)
“Tattoos are meant to be memorials to different times in your life, and parts of your life. I have a clementine tree because my daughter’s name is Clementine; a sailor woman with a banner that says, “eat well”; a radish; a piece of burnt toast in homage to my dad. (He burns a lot of toast.) There’s one given to me by a strange Hell’s Angel in a basement in Canada when I was too young—won’t show you that one.” —CHEF HUGH ACHESON, Savannah and Atlanta, Ga.

“I did sushi for 12 years, so that’s a throwback. And cooking is in my heart. —CHEF CHRISTOPHER RANDALL, Aspen, Colo.
“It’s a pineapple! What more is there to say? OK. It’s half-geometric, half-watercolor. I got it two months ago by Skyler Espinoza at Certified Customs in Denver. Pineapples are the symbol of hospitality. And I use pineapples a lot in my cooking. One of my favorite sayings when it comes to pineapples: ‘Stand tall, wear a crown, and be sweet on the inside.’” —CHEF DAVID WANG, Aspen, Colo.
I got it in 2006, on St. Patrick’s Day. I was living in Connecticut; got on the train at 8 a.m. to go to New York City. We started drinking beers...about noon, I made a joke, like, let’s get a cupcake tattoo. And my buddies were like, ‘I got $20 on it! I got $20 on it!’ So they all threw down and paid for the tattoo. I’m a pastry chef, and I actually don’t like cupcakes.” —CHEF JEB BREAKELL, New York City and Boulder, Colo.

“I’m doing Wine for Zillionaires [seminar], and who better represents the zillionaire than the tatted up guy in prison? ’Cause if you’re gonna make a zillion dollars, you’re gonna do a lot of crime. Oh, and this is the first wine seminar in the world to give out handcuffs, branded with the [made-up] Soused State Prison logo.” —WINE GURU MARK OLDMAN, Manhattan
“I got it at the Sailor Jerry party at the X Games three or four years ago by famous tattoo artist Oliver Peck. Friends of mine used to call me Rooster. I dunno, they said I strutted around like a rooster. And I love chickens.” —JUSTIN GORDON, Aspen, Colo.
“Kanpai on my ankle; it literally means bottoms up. I got it in college at the University of North Texas. Then the first year that I was working at Kenichi, I walked through in flip-flops, and [chef] Kiyomi saw and said, “No flip-flop! Aughhh! You have kanpai written on your foot?! They did spell it right, you’re good.” —DEREK LOVELL, Aspen, Colo.
“A breakdown of the primals, we all got it as a team after winning Cochon555 in Denver [in March], by Stephanie Larson at her studio apartment. Ashley Jenkins, our pastry chef [at Viceory Snowmass], got it on her forearm to match her other pig. Will Nolan got it on his knee. Mark Harding got it on his forearm. And Patrick Kennedy wussed out—you hear that, buddy? When we win Le Grand Cochon [in Chicago this October], he’ll get one.” —CHEF BIG MIKE RUTHERFORD, Glenwood Springs, Colo.
After I sold my book (“Sous Chef”), I spent all my royalties on a trip to Europe. I was in Copenhagen and dined out every night there in amazing restaurants. The friends I was with said we should get tattoos to commemorate. So, really drunk one night, I drew up this tattoo of a place setting. I felt it really captured the experience. It was also on my 32nd birthday, April 23. I’ve been under the needle 15 times, but this is the only (culinary tattoo).” —CHEF MICHAEL GIBNEY, New York City and Boulder, Colo. “It’s a bird eating a piece of bread. Does that count?” —MYSTERY FESTIVALGOER at Sunday’s Grand Tasting
“I love to eat fish — any kind, barbecue, sushi. I got a koi fish and full sleeve by Brian Foster from Elizabeth St. Tattoo in Riverside, Calif. He put a hammerhead on my foot, too. That way, if my foot is dangling in the ocean and a shark sees it, they’ll think it’s another shark and won’t bite my foot!” His plan has worked— so far. —GONZO, Aspen, Colo., and Seal Beach, Calif. “I’m head of security for Rickhouse Social. I got the tattoo because I’m a bouncer. I’ve worked at almost every bar in town…everybody tries to push my buttons and play me. I’m your Huckleberry. Bring it on.” —CHAD OGBURN, Aspen, Colo.

PORTILLO PISCO SOUR Back when the World Cup Finals were in Aspen in March, I got this great recipe for a Portillo Pisco Sour. The hook: The concept for the World Cup was created in the Portillo bar during the 1966 World Championships; the Pisco Sour is the Portillo bar specialty. And while the races have come and gone — it’s summer, finally! — the recipe resurfaced this week. The hook: Ski Portillo opens Saturday, June 24 — the Chilean ski area received feet of snow recently.

Puppy love: What happens when you add a new member to the family ...
DOUBLING DOWN:
THE SLOPE TO PARENTHOOD GETS A BIT STEEPER IT’S BEEN A FAIRLY LONG time since I’ve written about parenthood, or my dog Cassius or my slow progress to mothering a child (a.k.a. growing up). As of late, I’ve been relatively content talking about over indulgent, boozefilled events; fun things to get excited about for the summer and my recent international BARBARA PLATTS travels. However, intermingled between the elongated toasts and the celebratory guffaws, adulthood has been showing up in strange places, rearing its overly mature head in my direction. If you’ve read my column in the past, you may remember that in August 2014 I rescued a beta fish from a friend who no longer wished to handle it. Taking care of another living thing was intimidating for my 24-yearold self. By 2015, the beta fish — despite my efforts to keep it alive — passed on to fish heaven. At that time, my boyfriend and I decided we were responsible enough to adopt a puppy from the Aspen Animal Shelter. We named him Cassius, or Cash for short. The three of us — Cassius,

my boyfriend Matt and I — have been through a lot over the past few years, from hiking 14ers to road tripping the West Coast to paddleboarding rapids. Now, as Cash is almost turning 3, or 21 depending on how you calculate, we figured it was time for him to have a buddy. We thought he needed a friend, someone who would be tied to his hip, especially for those hours that we weren’t there. So, assuming that we knew perfectly well what is best for our son, we got him a sister last weekend. She came to us via a lifeline puppy rescue website. There must be millions of pet rescue, pet breeder and pet matching sites out there, each looking as sketchy as the next. This one was no exception. The only promising thing about it was the extensive photos of cute, adoptable puppies. We saw her picture and were immediately smitten. The 9-weekold Australian shepherd-heeler mix stole our hearts with a single snapshot. But, when we went to get more details on her, the photo had been taken down from the website. Still, we went to the organization’s weekly adoption event. Matt was excited about a potential new pup, but I was discouraged that the pup we

had seen on the website was no longer available. We arrived at the ranch somewhere in Brighton. A group of excited potential pet owners had already formed. We were 14th in line – yes, they actually gave out numbers. At this adoption event, the puppy rescue boasted 55 canines under one year of age. Typically, I would consider a situation like this to be heaven. But I was skeptical of all the pups we walked by, just positive that not one would be as perfect as the Aussie I saw in that photo. Finally, we asked the manager of the rescue if there was any chance she was still there. She took us over to a small pen where a tiny little puppy was hiding in the corner. Apparently, the little girl we fell in love with online was adopted and then returned because her owners thought she was too shy to handle. Maybe Matt and I have a knack for picking the timid ones — Cash was alarmingly quiet when we first adopted him — but once we held her, there was no stopping us. We adopted said shy one and took her home, naming her June. So now we have a June and a Cash, like the rockstar duo. Despite our genuine efforts to make Cash happy with this new addition to the family, the reality
of the situation has turned out slightly different. Cassius went from being a puppy to an adult overnight once June arrived, and I’m not sure he’s particularly happy about it. He goes through mood swings where one moment he loves having another dog in the house and the next he’s hoarding his bones in a corner of his kennel, as if relinquishing them to June could threaten life as he knows it. But he’s coming around. Every time she whimpers or barks, he runs over to check on her and licks her face playfully. As for Matt and I, we are fully entrenched in parent mode, which means many sleepless nights, exaggerated anxieties and messy potty cleanups. I’m sure it’s nothing compared to tending to a newborn human; however, it’s certainly not like raising a beta fish. But with two adorable pups like June and Cash, we wouldn’t have it any other way. We may no longer be a wholesome group of three, but this pack of four is pretty damn cute. More stories to come, I’m sure of it.

DESTINATION | BOULDER
by BETH J. HARPAZ for THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
IN BOULDER, FIVE FUN THINGS IN ONE WHIRLWIND AFTERNOON NOT EVERY DESTINATION lends itself to a whirlwind tour, but in the beautiful city of Boulder you can sample five fun and scenic spots in one afternoon. Of course, if you’ve got more time, everything on this list is worth savoring. But if you’re just passing through, this doable itinerary offers an easy way to experience the city’s top sights in a few hours. Boulder also is an easy side trip if your primary destination is Denver, about 25 miles away. The city’s typically sunny, blue-sky weather, gorgeous mountain scenery and easily traversed streets make it a pleasant destination no matter how much time you have.
now a National Historic Site with original buildings surrounded by parkland. Take a walk, lie on the grass, relax in a rocking chair, or if you have time, buy a ticket for one of its many events — concerts, films and other performances, including unique hikes that combine theater with the outdoors. There’s onsite lodging if you care to stay overnight, but if you’re cramming in a quick stop, one way to enjoy the place is to grab a bite at the Chautauqua Dining Hall. Get a table outside on the wraparound porch and enjoy the views and terrific menu, which ranges from bison to burrata cheese to Brussels sprouts. You can pick up a free map of Boulder inside the dining hall.
CHAUTAUQUA
FLAGSTAFF MOUNTAIN
The Chautauqua movement started in the late 19th century as a summer school for teachers. It later developed into a cultural phenomenon, offering lectures, music, the arts and recreation in thousands of communities around America. One of the last remaining Chautauquas is located in Boulder,
Boulder’s 45,000 acres of open space and parkland is supremely accessible. One minute, you’re dining, shopping or walking on a city street; a few minutes later, you can be up in the mountains, surrounded by pine trees, looking down on the city below. From Chautauqua, it’s a quick drive west to Flagstaff Mountain,
past the rock formations known as the Flatirons. The winding drive up the mountain is beautiful with many spots to pull your car over and go for a short (or long) hike. Be sure to see the Sunrise Amphitheater on the summit. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s, it has circular seating, a stage and incredible views. It’s a popular site for weddings. BOULDER CREEK PATH
Another encounter with the great outdoors can be had just blocks from downtown. On the scenic 8-mile Boulder Creek Path, you can stroll, bike or just sit for a few peaceful moments by the water. Kayakers, fly fisherman and wading dogs are all part of the scene. Part of it is paved, part is dirt and gravel. DUSHANBE TEAHOUSE
Boulder is home to dozens of options for food and drink but do not miss the one and only Dushanbe Teahouse. Dushanbe offers a formal afternoon tea with a three-tiered tower of pastries, cucumber sandwiches and more,
but it’s worth stopping in even if you don’t have the time or appetite for a sit-down just to see the building. The teahouse is named for Boulder’s sister city, the capital of Tajikistan, and its elaborate carved columns, ceramic panels and hand-painted ceiling were mostly handcrafted there by artisans, with some elements made or assembled here by visiting craftsmen. The menu offers breakfast, lunch, dinner or a snack in addition to the afternoon tea, but if you’ve only got a few minutes, head to the takeout counter in back and get a chai tea or hibiscus cooler to go. PEARL STREET MALL
Pearl Street has been Boulder’s main shopping district since the late 19th century and a pedestrian mall since the late 1970s. Today its historic storefronts have been restored and it bustles with shoppers, street performers and children at play. You’ll find eateries, bookstores, boutiques, antiques and toys, along with art galleries and shops selling everything from skateboards to cigars.

A closer look at the team that puts together The Ideas Festival by David Stillman Meyer

Jun e 22 - Jun e 2 8 , 2017
THE IDEAS FESTIVAL, June 22 through July 1, is not only the showcase for the myriad projects and initiatives of the Aspen Institute, but is also the embodiment of its mission, which is to gather people to talk, present and ask questions on timely and critical topics. And if those topics seem a bit, shall we say, scattered, that is somewhat the point. The vita-mixing of seemingly disparate subjects across multiple disciplines is actually what makes the Institute and the Festival so unique. Think tanks are usually quite narrow in their subject matter and really just churn out papers. University departments rarely co-mingle outside the annual holiday party. The Aspen Institute, however, gathers chemists, historians, musicians, high school teachers, teenagers, governors, faith leaders, politicians, writers
and disrupters of every feather in a forum really unlike any other. “On any given day we’re dealing with economics, global affairs, creativity, morality, artificial intelligence, genetics, politics,” explains Killeen Brettmann, managing director of public programs. As one can imagine, and as was universally noted among the staff, this is an endlessly inspiring place to work. It’s inspiring for the festival attendees, as well. “People leave a session and run for office, donate millions, get grants for research,” notes Kitty Boone, vice president, executive director of public programs and founder of the Ideas Festival. Of course, it’s not always that dramatic. Some people just fall in love. Eric Motley, executive vice president, can think of at least three couples that have met here. In fact, he

recently went to a wedding where the couple had not only met and married, but started a company together, as well. All thanks to the Festival. So, if those are the results, how on God’s green Aspen Meadows campus do they pull it off? Well, “they” is a team of about 30 full-time staffers and 20 or so interns based here in Aspen who handle every last detail from the lecture topics, to the scheduling, to the friendly faces who pick up guests at the airport. “Customer service is a huge, huge priority to the running of the festival,” Kitty emphasizes. The team is responsible for some of the most high-profile and high-powered people on Earth. “People always want the schedule earlier, but it is literally changing as the festival is taking place,” Killeen explains. Last year was particularly rough, as

not only did Bill Clinton decide to have a tarmac-side chat with the attorney general but the citizens of the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union — all this mid-conference, which caused quite a few scheduling snafus. But, it’s that kind of crisis management that the team is trained for. This year, they actually brought in efficiency experts from Toyota to evaluate more efficient transport routes to get people to and from the various venues. And that this streamlined enterprise is carried out each year by a team of women is a staffing detail no one had really thought about. In a world where the workforce continues to demonstrate gender divides in everything from tech to finance to education to entertainment, it’s both inspiring and thought-provoking to see an all-female staff at the helm of one of the most

important conferences in the world. Why do more women go into nonprofit, into event planning and production? “Maybe there’s something about the culture here that doesn’t necessarily attract more women, but certainly retains them,” hypothesizes Editorial Director Tricia Johnson. “It’s a very open, supportive and inclusive environment. Plus, we all just like each other.” The female-dominated workplace is a big change for Anthea Viragh, an Austrian-American, Bangkok raised, Middlebury graduate whose last internship was at BMW in China, an all-male workplace. “People are more open to listening, sharing ideas; no one holds back. Which is great, but sometimes, well, can get a bit overwhelming,” she observes. Farahnaz Afaq, an intern from Afghanistan, actually finds the environment quite familiar. “Honestly, working on a largely female team and being surrounded by mountains and rivers reminds me of being in my hometown in Afghanistan. All the public schools are single gender there and the countryside is surrounded with beautiful mountains just like Aspen, but less green.” How and why demographics play out the way they do is exactly the kind of question that the Institute would — and has — tackled in a much more thoughtful and informed manner than I am doing here. What seems evident is that the culture within the Institute is very much a reflection of its mission and values, one devoted to diverse, intellectual pursuits and fearlessly tackling problems big (climate change) and small (where is the catering for the Koch Room?) This isn’t to say that the enterprise isn’t immune to the systemic and cultural shortcomings that even the smartest people in the world have yet figured out. But when it comes to this crack team, I’ll leave it to Beyoncé to conclude: “My persuasion can build a nation / Endless power, with our love we can devour. Girls, we run this motha.”

MUSIC/ART/FILM/LITERATURE
by ANDREW TRAVERS
DAMIEN WOETZEL’S ART OF CHANGE THE ASPEN INSTITUTE ARTS PROGRAM DIRECTOR LOOKS BACK ON HIS TENURE DAMIEN WOETZEL IS winding down his time as director of the Aspen Institute Arts Program, finishing a transformative tenure that’s reshaped the nonprofit’s programming and returned art and artists to their historic place at the center of the Institute’s mission. The former principal dancer at New York City Ballet has led the Institute’s arts wing since 2011. In May, he was named president of the Juilliard School, where his tenure begins in July 2018. Woetzel — who also serves as artistic director of the annual Vail Dance Festival — will stay on board at the Institute through next year’s Aspen Ideas Festival. At this year’s Ideas Fest, June 25 to July 1, his program is welcoming luminaries ranging from Norman Lear to Jeff Koons and running a festival-long track titled “The Art of Change” that will examine art’s social impact. I caught up with Woetzel recently to look back on his time in Aspen and ahead to his next adventure at Juilliard. Andrew Travers: You’re jumping into the world of academic administration for the first time. What about it excites you? Damien Woetzel: In so many ways this is a culmination of so many strands of my life to date — from being a young artist who came to New York to be the best dancer I could, with a dream. That aspect of knowing the students are arriving with a hope that is timeless and continues to this moment, to the work that I did as a
professional and understanding the needs in the field. And collaboratively, what really appeals to me about this is having music, dance and drama all in the same place as this one giant creative engine, creating the future, is what I look at as such an extraordinary opportunity. AT: Over your tenure here at the Institute, we’ve seen you launch the artist-in-residence program and the way you’ve integrated the arts across the diverse programs within the Institute, how you’ve brought the idea of the “citizen artist” to the fore in your time there. What are you proudest of? What did you learn in Aspen? DW: You hit on many of them. The idea of integrating the arts into there greater conversation was the goal from the beginning. It was my goal the first day I was privileged to come to the Institute — not just to be someone showcasing art and the arts, but actually integrating the arts into larger frameworks, which is something that I believe in and when I finished my career on the stage (it) was something that I put a heavy focus on trying to do. The Institute has been utterly welcoming of that idea, because it fits. It truly is a part of the DNA of the pace. And Walter (Isaacson) and Elliot (Gerson) and Kitty [Boone] and all of my own team, and many programs — from Youth and Engagement to the seminars — we all put it together in a way to become a cohesive proposition. The Creative Young Leaders Alliance is something that I’m most proud of — to build this generation
of young leaders who have creative sides. We started very small and now it takes place in different cities around the country. And a few years down the line, there’s going to be a common base around the country. They’ve all performed “Antigone,” if you know what I mean. The Aspen Strategy Group — when I saw that I said, “We should have one of these for the arts.” We’ve done those in various places, addressing how the arts can be of the most service to society. It’s a useful model that will go on. We look at something, we sew it happen and then we say “What is culture’s piece in this?” That’s certainly a common characteristic of all the artists-in-residence and also in the DNA of the organization. I think that’s important. I’ve just been honored to be a part of that tradition and I’m thrilled that I get to keep doing it for another year. And I look forward to collaborating with the Institute at Julliard and instilling that thinking there. AT: We’ve witnessed some transcendent artistic moments at the Institute in recent years with you on stage. I’m thinking of the artist J.R.’s film and live performance collaboration with the dancer Lil Buck two summers ago, Yo-Yo Ma performing with the injured war veterans from MusiCorps in 2013, and so on. What are the moments for you that stand out? DW: Yo-Yo and MusiCorps was something truly special. It started in an organic place, in that I learned of this program at Walter Reed (Army Medical Center). Music
was being offered as a daily thing to do, essentially. It wasn’t therapy; it was “We think this might be a beneficial way to spend your time.” And it turned out it was incredibly valuable in a huge number of ways. and when I spoke to Yo-Yo about it and introduced him to (MusiCorps founder) Arthur Bloom and said, “We should go visit, we should do one of our art strikes there.” We had just been at the Kennedy Centers Honors in D.C. and got in a car an went to Walter Reed. And the next thing we knew, Yo-Yo had his cello out and they met on the field of music. It was just about the work. They rehearsed and did the work. So I said, “Lets take this to another step,” which became the idea of bringing it to Aspen Ideas and sharing it with people. The way it came togther in the framework of health, mental health and mindfulness happened right on stage in Paepcke (Auditorium). It was very special and its gone on to this day, the work goes on. Being able to synthesize those moments in Aspen has been really valuable. I also think about Sing for Hope with Camille Zamora. We brought a Sing for Hope piano to Aspen. I remember it sitting on the lawn next to the Marble Garden and keeping an eye on who would play it and witnessing the magic of it. People would hear music across campus and people would gravitate toward it. It represented the ideal for the Institute, I thought.

BOOK REVIEW
‘CAMINO ISLAND’ THE TALE OPENS WITH a robbery and closes with a reconciliation. In between these bookends, “Camino Island” by John Grisham is populated with ruthless thieves, witty writers and enough intrigue to fill a bookstore’s mystery aisle. At the heart of the story is the theft of five priceless, yet heavily insured, original manuscripts by F. Scott Fitzgerald, including “The Great Gatsby” and “Tender Is the Night,” from Princeton University’s library. After the successful caper turns sour — a few of the crew are quickly nabbed by the feds — the story moves south with an abrupt turn. The reader is introduced to Bruce Cable, an outgoing and popular bookstore owner in the town of Santa Rosa on Camino Island, Florida, who just happens to make the occasional

black market deal for stolen books — and who has a penchant for seersucker suits. Could he somehow be involved in the Princeton theft? Next we meet Mercer Mann, a novelist who cannot get her new book going and has recently lost her teaching job at the University of North Carolina. She’s soon recruited by an outfit working for the insurance company as the perfect sleuth to suss out the fate of the manuscripts — she spent much of her youth on Camino Island with her grandmother, who died tragically. As Mann looks for the books and comes to terms with her grandmother’s passing, she discovers a town filled with successful and failed writers, from romance novelists to struggling literary fiction authors, some with drinking problems, others brimming with the latest gossip.

As the fate of the lost manuscripts is revealed page by page, the action pivots among Mann, Cable and the thieves until all is revealed. “Camino Island” makes a fine beach read no matter what island you end up on this summer. However, I’m not sure if this novel’s Camino Island, filled as it is with writers, is Grisham’s idea of “This Side of Paradise” or if he considers the writers to be “The Beautiful and Damned.”
