Aspen Celebrity Spelldown!
Hosted live at the Hotel Jerome studio in downtown Aspen, Spell What? is everyone's favorite fundraising game show gala, where local Aspen celebrities take the stage to "outwit, outspell and outlast" their fellow competitors. Members of the audience play along, but they don't play fair, as they offer contestants clever ways to stay in the game (in other words, cheat!). Everyone is out to win BIG and to be the last speller standing. Proceeds from this spelltastic event benefit Aspen Youth Center and its mission: to provide a safe and supportive place for youth to connect, learn and grow.
The festivities begin with a cocktail hour and silent auction at the Hotel Jerome Antler Bar prior to the show. Audience members are then ushered into the Spell What? "sound stage" to their respective tables where they are served an exquisite dinner and lively libations.
Spell What? is officially "on air" following dinner. Spellers and audience members are welcomed by the show's host, and the spelling twists and turns take off from there. It's a fast-paced evening where even the best spellers may not be the biggest winners...
