August 17, 2018 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

FRIDAY, August 17

This weekend, it feels like things are winding down, but not without about eleventy free see-ya-summer concerts. There are so many, in fact, we couldn’t list them all! Check the schedule at Mountain Town Music’s website; they’re responsible for programming so many of them and have created opportunities for hundreds of our community members to enjoy so much music throughout our gorgeous summer days and nights.

This weekend, we’re enjoying our free time to the fullest as we say a bittersweet goodbye to summer. We know, we keep saying it and it’s pretty uncool. But we need to face it eventually – school starts next week!

Music in the Meadow

July 25, 2018 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

Music in the Meadow | July 2018

The first-ever Music in the Meadow was an evening filled with lovely music, delicious food, and a bull moose sighting! The event was held in the Meadow Lakes area of The Colony as a way to introduce the community to the magic of the upper meadow.

The bull moose made itself at home in the lakes during Music in the Meadow.

About 150 guests were ferried by golf cart to Homesite 270 (one of our favorites in the Meadow Lakes) and enjoyed music from Rogers & Buffington, food by Ellie’s, wine by Old Town Cellars, and homemade Ice Cream by Wasatch Creamery Ice Cream Co. Photos were captured by Eclectic Brew Productions.

Meadow Lakes Homesites
The Meadow Lakes Homesites are the initial release of our final chapter here at The Colony – Phase 5. The 12 spectacular homesites skirt the upper meadow of The Colony and offer flat building pads, incredible old-growth forest, and a remarkable water feature with five lakes and a waterfall-dotted stream. Just 5 Meadow Lakes Homesites remain:

267 White Pine Canyon Road
This homesite is tucked among old-growth aspens on a partially-wooded corner lot. It’s an easy build lot with big sky views and ski-in, ski-out access directly outside your door. Such close ski proximity means hiking and biking trails are just as close when the snow melts. Homesite 267 is perhaps the best value to be found in The Colony.
267 WPC Rd: 4.44 acres | Offered at $1.9 million

268 White Pine Canyon Road
Some of the largest aspens in The Colony are found on this homesite, which has exceptional views of the meadow water features. The homesite is nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac, with remarkable ski-in, ski-out access to multiple ski runs.
268 WPC Rd: 2.40 acres | Offered at $2.6 million

Homesite 270 is quiet and private, with marvelous down-meadow views.

269 White Pine Canyon Road
More spectacular down-meadow views overlooking the meadow lakes are found from this homesite, which is partially-wooded with mature, healthy pine and aspen trees. This homesite has terrific ski-in, ski-out access from Quicksilver Gondola and the closest proximity to hiking and biking meadow trails.
269 WPC Rd: 2.42 acres | Offered at $2.5 million

270 White Pine Canyon Road
This is one of our very favorite homesites in The Colony – and the setting for our Music in the Meadow event. The setting is naturally extremely private, with some of the best down-meadow views available, with ski access.
270 WPC Rd: 3.33 Acres | Offered at $2.8 million

273 White Pine Canyon Road
An extremely private corner cul-de-sac homesite, due to its heavily forested setting. It has some of the oldest-growth, largest aspen trees in all of The Colony, and is one of our larger remaining lots available with, of course, ski-in, ski-out access.
273 WPC Rd: 4.74 acres | Offered at $1.9 million

Finally, congratulations to Darhl Bova, winner of our raffle for dinner for four this winter at The Colony Yurt!

FRIDAY JULY 20

“Affirmations” Exhibition
Local Artists Reception
Gallery MAR @ 6PM

Connect with local artists Ron Russon and Cristall Harper at the “Affirmations” local artists reception. (Photo courtesy: Gallery MAR. The work is, “I am Encircled, in oil, by Cristall Harper.)

Cristall Harper has a studio in American Fork, and says she paints the way “a glass artist works: with lots of little shapes of color.” A critic once described her work as “…personal version of abstraction… beautifully rooted in reality.” Her themes are delineated as florals, dogs, and seascapes.

Photo courtesy: Gallery MAR. “Get in Line,” in oil, by Ron Russon.

Ron Russon was born and raised outside of Lehi and his work focuses on wildlife, landscapes, and prairie & farm. He describes himself as “a farmer who paints,” and paints in rural life in a contemporary style.

Meet both artists – and view their work – on Friday night at Gallery MAR.

Niki de Saint Phalle: Freedom Would Be Mine
Community Opening @ 6 PM
Kimball Art Center

Niki de Saint Phalle is considered one of the foremost women artists of the 20th century. Her works as a sculptor, painter, and filmmaker from the 1950s – early 2000s range from intimate to monumental. Her career started with provocative, angry works, with bullseyes over collages, and knives and razor blades embedded in plaster. Over time, though, her work evolved to become joyful, bright sculptures of women. This exhibit, Freedom Would Be Mine, “explores the artist’s radical redefinition of women’s roles and women’s bodies and unveils Saint Phalle’s continual quest for freedom.” Her work will be on display at the Kimball Art Center from July 21 – September 16.

Deer Valley Music Festival
Rick Springfield with the Utah Symphony
Gates open @ 5:30 PM | Show @ 7:30 PM

When you think of the Deer Valley Music Festival, you may think of it like we do – BD and AD (before dancing and after dancing). Our favorite moment at each concert is the one where the night cracks open and people hit the dance floor … er, grass. We have a feeling that the dancing is going to start *really* early when GRAMMY®-winning singer/songwriter Rick Springfield joins the Utah Symphony. Wear comfy shoes (or not, maybe just flip your shoes off when you’re ready to dance) and start gearing up for “Jessie’s Girl,” along with his other hits.
