Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.

Join us for an SOF Discussion Reception featuring Dr. Jenny Stuber, Professor of Sociology, University of North Florida, and Francisca Antman, Associate Professor of Economics, University of Colorado at Boulder, in conversation with Jon Fox-Rubin, Principal, FoxRubin Limited, about the social and economic issues addressed in Stuber’s recently published book, Aspen and the American Dream: How One Town Manages Inequality in the Era of Supergentrification. The panel will explore how Aspen’s evolution reflects broader American struggles with income disparity, affordable housing, and systemic racism.
