Park City Event Guide: Kimball Arts Festival | August 2 – 4

August 1, 2019 by Shelby Hintze, Colony PR Leave a Comment

For 50 years, the Kimball Art Center (KAC) has shut down Historic Main Street and displayed the wares of artists from all over the globe as the community comes together to celebrate the Kimball Arts Festival.

The festival takes place this weekend: August 2-4, and functions as the KAC’s main fundraiser for the year. The non-profit KAC works to provide access to art and art education to those in the Park City area. That includes offering scholarships to students to their many, many art classes, providing in-class and after-school programs at Park City and Summit County schools and provide free access to incredible exhibits to the community. Money raised from the Festival allows the KAC to continue its mission throughout the year.

Each year, it seems, the festival grows, and this year, the works of more than 220 artists will be highlighted. They come in all mediums — from drawing, to jewelry, to wood. Invited artists come from 33 states and three countries. Not only that – there are opportunities for you to jump in and experiment with your own creativity.

Here’s what to look forward to at one of Park City’s largest, most fun summer events.

TICKETS
This year, if you’re a Summit County resident, you can get FREE admission by registering HERE before the festival.

VIP PASSES
The Festival gets even better with unlimited access to the VIP Lounge in the Kimball terrace. You get all the food and beverages you can handle — plus (cue the heavenly music) PARKING.

Catering provided by Culinary Crafts and Intermountain Park City Hospital and beverages provided by VIDA Tequila, barrel-aged specialty cocktails by Ogden’s Own Distillery, and local beers from Park City Brewery. Buy tickets HERE.

SPECIAL EVENTS

Art Starts Here Gala
August 1 | 6PM @ Kimball Terrace
This fancy gala raises money for the Kimball Art Center. Live auction items include one-of-a-kind experiences — like a chance to mingle with the New York Rangers in the locker room and attend the post-game press conference, jet off to Argentina and Uruguay and stay in some of South America’s most exclusive resorts, and custom artwork by award-winning artist Dolan Geiman. Buy tickets HERE.

Can’t make it to the Gala? You can still win a St Regis, Deer Valley staycation for only $50! Buy a Golden Ticket HERE.

Brushes and Brunch
August 4 | 9AM @ Rockwell Room
Crepes and creatives, coffee and canvas, mimosas and mixed media… you get the idea!

Mimosas and Bloody Mary’s begin flowing at 10 a.m.  Buy tickets HERE.

Pam Bowman and Jacqui Larsen Exhibit: “Things My Mother Taught Me”

https://kimballartcenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/tmmtmpostcardfront-1024x663.jpg

Exhibition available through Sept. 8 @ Kimball Art Center
Featuring installation works by Bowman and mixed-media paintings by Larsen at the Kimball Art Center. From the KAC “In Pam Bowman’s installation, six-story fragments from her life resonate universally as she addresses the formative issues of character development, individual purpose, and body image, as taught by her mother. Jacqui Larsen’s paintings take a metaphoric look at the impossible charge of any guardian to stand as a lookout for a child.”

Mountain Flower Apparel Live Hand-Painting
Come watch your own tee shirt come to life. More than 65 artists submitted designs for this anniversary design commemorating the 50th anniversary. Tamia Wardle’s design was ultimately picked to adorn posters and tee shirts.

All weekend, at the Mountain Flower Apparel booth, you can watch the hand painting process in real-time and take home a tee shirt for $20.

The Colony at White Pine Canyon is the largest gated ski-in / ski-out community in the United States. Our land spans 4600 acres, and approximately 90% of it will always be preserved as open space.

In winter, enjoy exclusive ski and snowboard access to one of North America’s largest mountain resorts, Park City Mountain. In spring, the snow melts to reveal an amazing network of hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails, connecting to more than 400 miles of single-track trails throughout the surrounding area.

The Colony is just 35 minutes from Salt Lake International Airport and 5 minutes to Park City’s historic Main Street, home to the Sundance Film Festival and world-class dining and shopping.
