Steven Colby : potterSaturday October,11 will be the final Aspen Saturday Market for the 2014 season.  I’ve been on the street with the Artstream most summer saturdays for the last 14 years – the end of the market is always bitter sweet.  Drop by and say hello if you are fortunate enough to find yourselves in Aspen this weekend.
