Pack a chair, grab dinner from a local vendor, and spend the evening with friends, family, and neighbors. There’s no better way to start summer in Big Sky.

What a creative week at Mini Masters Summer Camp! 🎨✨

Our young artists explored the work of Yayoi Kusama, Romero Britto, and Jean-Michel Basquiat, discovering how each artist used color, pattern, and self-expression in unique ways.

From Kusama-inspired pop-up installations and FIMO dioramas to Basquiat and Britto-inspired posters and shoe sculptures, campers spent the week experimenting with new techniques and bringing their ideas to life. They also imagined themselves as future artists, creating original designs and dreaming up their own creative paths.

To wrap up the week, students decorated tip boxes that will be featured at the Artventure Tent during Music in the Mountains. We can’t wait for the community to see their work! 🎶🖌️

Thanks Amy, Mayla and Rebecca for showing these kids a great week! 🌟

Pinky and the Floyd have been bringing their legendary live show to Big Sky for over a decade, and we’re thrilled to welcome them back once again.

Their Big Sky performance in 2024 was their last with founding keyboardist Joe Kirchner, who tragically passed away shortly after.

As the band returns to the stage in Big Sky, we’re looking forward to another powerful night of music from one of Montana’s most beloved bands.
