Under Aspen’s clear skies and crisp mountain air, an intimate group of artists, designers, and cultural insiders gathered at Hotel Jerome for a night of seasonal flavors and spirited conversation, in celebration of Libertine’s polychrome pop-up. 

The Scene: At the Prospect Garden Terrace of Hotel Jerome, CULTURED Editor-in-Chief Sarah Harrelson and Libertine Founder and Creative Director Johnson Hartig gathered a circle of peers to press pause on the bustle of the week’s calendar.

The Occasion: Libertine’s Salon at Aspen ArtWeek—a creative highlight of the summer calendar that brings the international art world to the Rockies.

The Locale: Inside the hotel, guests were welcomed into a space where rustic charm met design-forward flair. Known for its sumptuous commitment to alpine leisure and heritage, the venue provided a warm, intimate backdrop infused with a bit of Libertine’s signature technicolor flair.

The Crowd: Among the company of tastemakers, mingling guests included Away Co-Founder and Executive Chair Jen Rubio; artists Issy Wood and Rogan Gregory; CULTURED‘s co-chief art critic Johanna Fateman; creative consultant Noora Raj Brown; entrepreneurs Stephane and Sabrina De Baets;High Sport founder Alissa Zachary; collectors Michelle and Jason Rubell;designer Sterling McDavid;and jeweler Briony Raymond

Cause for FOMO: Each seat was occupied by a leader in the cultural conversation this season, all wearing their most fashion-forward looks to the dinner (we spotted salmon linen suits, pink poppy jackets, glittering sweaters, and tomato bags among them).
