WALK
In 1946, Aspen Skiing Corporation founders Walter and Elizabeth Paepcke invited Herbert Bayer, a Bauhaus teacher driven from Germany by the Nazis, to come to the mountains to design a new center for the mind, body, and spirit. The resulting 40-acre Aspen Institute is brimming with Bayer-designed buildings, earthworks, and sculptures. Explore the campus on a guided tour with art curator Lissa Ballinger.

DANCE
Members of the Bauhaus circle often threw avant-garde costume parties where attendees came dressed as antennas, futuristic harlequins, or even right angles. On June 6, the Wheeler Opera House throws its own Bauhaus Ball, encouraging DIY designs. Need inspiration? Join a costume-making workshop at the Red Brick Center for the Arts on Wednesday nights this month. Free, wheeleroperahouse.com
