The Community Different
in the City Different
Only ten minutes from the heart of Santa Fe is a world apart. Awash with natural beauty and
serenity, Las Campanas awaits your discovery. Heavily influenced by the spectacular landscape,
the grandeur of the mountains, the incredible light that descends into unforgettable sunsets; here
lies a lifestyle to dream of and new friends to enjoy it with. Life at Las Campanas includes two
Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf courses, a world class Equestrian Center , a fully equipped Spa and
&Tennis center, and the grand Hacienda Clubhouse from which to dine or simply savor a cocktail
at twilight.
The homes offer a range of price points and a variety of architectural styles derivative of Santa
Fe, yet fresh in their interpretation.
Or you can create your own masterpiece on a homesite with views that take your breath away.
See Las Campanas through the eyes of someone who knows it best,
Laurie Farber-Condon

ASPEN SANTA FE BALLET
FROM THE
DIRECTORS
Dear Friends,
It is our great pleasure to welcome you to this performance by Aspen Santa Fe Ballet.
We exist for our audiences, as your applause fills our dancers’ hearts. For the past 23
seasons, ASFB performances have fed the souls of thousands of people each year. We
are humbled by the hundreds of individuals, foundations, government agencies, and
businesses who continue to support our work.
This sustenance has brought real results: ASFB is a force in the field of contemporary
dance. Every year, our exuberant company travels the nation—in the next months
taking command of stages in Dallas, Los Angeles, Scottsdale, and New York City—
to inspire audiences with their artistry. In overseas tours, we proudly serve as
ambassadors for our arts-aware communities of Aspen and Santa Fe. We are
happy to announce that Aspen Santa Fe Ballet has been invited back to Israel.
The tour includes six performances in Tel-Aviv, a global dance capital, as well as
appearances in Yagur, Modiin, and Jerusalem.
On the home front, ASFB’s educational programs continue to directly impact the
lives of over 600 children from Aspen to Rifle, and throughout the greater Santa Fe
area. This staggering number reflects over 140 classes taught each week. Firm in our
belief that every child should have the opportunity to experience the joy of dance,
The School of ASFB awards over $40,000 of scholarship assistance annually. Finally,
the award-winning ASFB Folklórico continues to cross cultural boundaries as a free
after-school program open to all ages and socio-economic backgrounds.
Our beloved production of The Nutcracker kicks off the season with its subtle charm
and boisterous joie de vivre. Hundreds of children from The School of ASFB work
side-by-side with our professional dancers, learning the craft of the stage. Twenty
additional performers join our ranks to fill the enormous cast of dancers and actors.
This coming summer, we are thrilled to bring our audiences something fresh and
new. For the first time, our dancers will take on the challenge of an evening-length,
abstract work, Beautiful Decay, by choreographer Nicolo Fonte. This expansive ballet
challenges notions of beauty and youth and ruminates on whether true beauty can
ever fade. Set to Vivaldi’s iconic The Four Seasons, it has a distinguished set design by
Tony Award-winning designer Mimi Lien.
The poignancy of Beautiful Decay serves as an apt metaphor for Aspen Santa Fe Ballet
today. For the last two decades, the company has proven its capacity for rejuvenation,
as young dancers inject fresh energy to fortify the talent of our seasoned dancers,
and new ballets encourage exploration and innovation. It is this forward-thinking
attitude, deeply embedded in the company culture, that your contributions bolster.
Our most intricate dance is the tightrope walk between artistic excellence and

financial stability. The cost of producing high-caliber performances in our home towns
is increasing, yet the base of support in our sophisticated-but-small communities is
limited in scale. As you read this letter, please hear how urgently we invite each and
every one of you in this theater to do what you can to ensure our continued success.
If what you see moves you, if you believe our offerings and activities make a distinct
and precious contribution to society, then please add your name to the list of Aspen
Santa Fe Ballet donors.
With warm wishes in our 23rd season,
Tom Mossbrucker Jean-Philippe Malaty
