“Re-Wombing” is an experiential textile sculpture by Paige Stewart. This new artwork acts as an amplifier for healing, by allowing the participant to enter the womb, follow a specialized meditation and re-womb or rebirth themselves anew. This artwork is installed for three months in Gunnison; Each weekend there will be specific healing programming set-up in conjunction with the artwork; dealing with womb related opportunities for healing. Go to the website to sign up for various workshops or to visit the artwork at a time that works for you.
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
