Oktoberfest
Snowbird

Time is quickly draining for you to attend the annual Oktoberfest at Snowbird! The brew-fest is a family-friendly affair with fun, food, and, of course, practically bottomless brews. If you haven’t gone yet – or you want to hit it up again – Saturday and Sunday will be your last chances.

The annual festival includes a biergarten with more than 50 (yes, FIFTY) varieties of beer. The selections range from German-style brews to locally-crafted suds from Utah breweries (including Moab Brewery, Bohemian, Uinta, and Squatters), and you can save a few bucks on the beers by re-using one of your previously-purchased, 1-liter Snowbird Oktoberfest beer stein or mug (you know you have one. Or ten.).
Not into beer? No problem. A wine garden awaits and you can revisit your college drinking days in the Jagermeister tent.

(Safety note: PLEASE don’t drink and drive. There’s an Oktoberfest lodging special to make it easier for you to be safe and stay the night.)

Of course, with all those drinks, you’re gonna need some food. Grab a brat, or some weisswurst, sauerkraut, apple strudel, spaetzle, beef rouladen, pretzels, and Bavarian roasted almonds. Beer and food are purchased a la carte. The brewskis flow from noon until 6:30 p.m., but get there this weekend because the keg is kicked till next year on Sunday!

Body and Soul
Kimball Art Center
Through November 4

Never in history have we (ok, some of us) been more inundated with images – at least from a social media perspective. Landscapes, pictures of home design and architecture, candids (does such a thing even exist anymore?) but especially the new self-portrait – those supernumerary selfies – are shared and consumed relentlessly across social channels.

Kimball Art Center’s new exhibit, Body and Soul, features 24 Utah-based artists and explores the lasting power of what you could call the “legit-art selfie” genre across contemporary painting, photography, text-based installations, and more. From the Kimball Art Center website:

“Established tropes are both embraced and reinvented, presenting diverse approaches to portraiture as a means of commemoration, reflection, and social critique. From faithful likeness to fantasy and fracture, the power of portraits is that they are about more than what we look like; they reveal who we are.” Admission is free; the exhibit will run through November 4.

Backroads Americana by Tom Kelly
11 AM – 6 PM @ Artique Gallery

Main St, Kamas. Tom’s exhibit runs through October 31, 2018.

Based on the novel by Nick Hornby, Juliet, Naked is a comic account of life’s second chances.”

“Eighth Grade” Screening
8 PM @ Jim Santy Auditorium
Presented by Park City Film Series

This one has gotten a lot of buzz – and the San Francisco Chronicle calls it “A beautiful and uncompromising piece of art…”

It follows thirteen-year-old Kayla, who endures the tidal wave of emotions that follow her through the last weeks of middle school–the end of her eighth-grade year before she begins high school.

The Park City Film Series says: “This is a unique and genuine coming of age film about the plight of young kids today in an internet-saturated world that forces them to grow up faster than they can handle.”

“Eighth Grade” premiered at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival. The show plays 8PM Friday and Saturday; 6 PM Sunday.

Park City Event Guide: September 29 & 30

September 29, 2018 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

By this time the last year, it had already snowed a few times. This year, we’re enjoying a bit of a blissful autumn. Our trees have faded into subdued golden shades, it’s chilly enough in the mornings for a hearty, heavy sweater but warms up with the wonderful sunshine throughout the day, and you’ve likely had a few pumpkin spice lattes (we won’t tell).

This weekend could be considered a quiet one by Park City standards (though there is still much to do, as ever, in our fabulous ski town). So grab your PSL, pull on your sweater (but be sure to wear short sleeves underneath!), and get out there to enjoy our community!

Once Upon a Playground Exhibit
Park City Museum

All those playground items we loved so much and injured ourselves on frequently as children – you know, metal slides, jungle gyms, seesaws, and the circle of misery known as merry-go-rounds – have somehow been relegated to artifacts of our childhood.

And, not only are they part of our personal histories, they’re examples of our country’s cultural (and industrial) design heritage. From the Park City Museum website:

“Once Upon a Playground offers a visual tribute to these vanishing playgrounds of our past, celebrating their place in American culture and the collective memories of generations.

The exhibit is co-curated by Brenda Biondo, author of Once Upon a Playground: A Celebration of Classic American Playgrounds, 1920–1975 (University Press of New England, 2014), and Carol Johnson, recently retired curator of photography at the Library of Congress, the exhibition combines contemporary photographs of classic equipment, vintage images of playground scenes from the Library of Congress’ collections, and images from period playground catalogs and other ephemera. By bringing together these diverse sources, the exhibition highlights a playground vernacular that developed over decades, while providing historical context and cultural insight.”

Check the Park City Museum website for hours – the exhibit runs through October 16.

The Art and Science of Arachnids

8 PM @ Jim Santy Auditorium
Park City Library

This Matchstick Productions’ 2018 ski film is said to present a “first-of-its-kind experience.” From the Park City Film Series:

“The concept was spearheaded by a talented group of hard-charging women who wanted to disrupt the male-dominated ski film formula. This isn’t your typical “Women can shred too” film, this is a kick-ass ski film that just happens to feature as many women as men. Skiing isn’t exclusionary, true fun in the mountains can be shared equally by everyone.” Wine and beer are available for purchase. Tonight’s show is at 8; you can catch it tomorrow at 6 p.m.

New Homesites Released in The Colony at White Pine Canyon

September 28, 2018 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

The Colony Releases Eight Homesites in Meadow Lakes | Phase 5: E & F

It’s the next step in our final chapter: The Colony at White Pine Canyon has just released eight spectacular homesites in the Meadow Lakes – also known as Phase 5.

The E & F homesites are some of the most unique properties we have ever offered — no small statement here at The Colony, where it truly feels like you get to live in your very own national park.

If you don’t know us already, The Colony at White Pine Canyon is the largest ski-in, ski-out private development in the United States. We are a private, 4600-acre, gated community in the heart of Park City Mountain, one of North America’s largest ski resorts.

Each home here has the incredible amenity of ski-in, ski-out access, and in warmer weather, hiking, biking, horseback riding, and more are right outside your door.

Speaking of access, which is a key word, when you build your legacy here in The Colony, not only do you have immediate access to world-class skiing, you also have easy access to airports and direct access to Park City’s own unique style of living.

The homesites are easily accessible from our secure gated entry, and The Colony itself is:

35 miles from Salt Lake City International Airport
22 miles from Heber Valley Airport
5 miles from Historic Main Street in Park City, Utah

Here at The Colony – we treasure our open land, and we’re committed to sustainability. In fact, nearly 90-percent of the land will remain pristine and untouched open space – and we protect that commitment with conservation easements.

The homesites in Phase 5 E & F, our Meadow Lakes area, are among the largest available; they boast commanding views, old-growth forests, a remarkable water feature, and flat building pads.

Among what makes these Meadow Lakes homesites particularly epic: unique private ski access, a Nordic ski track, and private walking and snowshoeing trails. These eight homesites are truly unlike anything else in The Colony.
