The Lounge is the Community
The Lounge functions as the hotel's and the community’s living room. So what happens there reflects, and influences, regional conversations.
In Aspen, our Aspen U speaker series has hosted international environmental leaders like Bill McKibben and Naomi Oreskes for intimate speaking gigs. Only requirement: the speaker, and the audience, needs to drink beer, (OK, it's not required, but encouraged).
In 2020, the Limelight Snowmass hosted Black leaders from Denver, who met with Aspen Skiing Company senior leadership for cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and an impromptu discussion on why we care about racial justice, and what we might do next.
