Anderson Ranch Arts Center has a long tradition of providing transformative educational experiences in the visual arts. We bring together an outstanding faculty of emerging and renowned artists and professional educators from all over the US and abroad. Instruction covers a broad spectrum of media including: ceramics, digital media and photography, furniture design and woodworking, painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture and critical studies.

The Ranch encourages rigorous inquiry and purposeful risk-taking. We value diversity of artistic expression and provide meaningful experiences for all our participants. All of this is accomplished on five acre campus nestled in the Rocky Mountains, serene and inspiring locale with access to the vibrant cultural and outdoor lifestyle of the Aspen/Snowmass Village area.

Anderson Ranch is proud to offer expanded year-round workshop programming with our new Fall Workshops, January Studio Intensives and Spring Workshops, in addition to our renowned Summer Workshops program.
