July 20, 2018 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

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.

SATURDAY, JULY 21

Miner’s Plaza Concerts
Shows begin @ 1:30 PM

A few Saturdays this summer, Mountain Town Music has programmed complimentary concerts in Miner’s Park, a pocket-sized park in the center of Historic Main Street. Bask in the music and then hop into the bustle of Main Street, cause you’re *right there.* Chapter 3, a multi-instrumental duo w/ harmonizing vocals, kicks off the shows on Saturday at 1:30 p.m., followed by the Fab Folk, which does folk renditions of Beatles songs, at 3:30 p.m. Free Concerts at Miner’s Plaza are also scheduled for July 28 and August 18.

Canyons Village Concert Series
Polyrhythmics
Canyons Village @ 6 PM

An eight-piece instrumental band with rich, bold brass and percussion. The sound is described as a “blend of funk, soul, progressive jazz, and psychedelic rock.”

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

Broadway star and Tony-Award-winner Sutton Foster joins the Utah Symphony on Saturday night to bring you an evening packed with incredible music. One of the Great White Way’s most versatile leads, Foster has starred in Thoroughly Modern Millie, Anything Goes, Little Women, Shrek the Musical, and Violet, and is now a lead in the show Younger on TVLand. You can buy tickets online, or on-site

Saturday Morning Nature Walk

Park City Nonprofit Highlight: Park City Institute

July 18, 2018 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

PARK CITY INSTITUTE
Park City Institute, originally known as the Park City Performing Arts Foundation, was founded in 1998, to bring world-class performances and new ideas to the Park City community (photo courtesy: Park City Institute). This year is its 20th year of doing just that – it finds incredibly thought-provoking speakers and delightful performers and puts them in front of our community at the George S. and Dolores Doré Eccles Center stage.

PCI’s concert series, now in its 15th consecutive year, was a study in problem-solving after Deer Valley threw a huge curveball this spring. After 14 years of holding its events at the Snow Park Outdoor Amphitheatre, DV informed Park City Institute its St. Regis Big Stars, Bright Night Concerts Series would need to find a new home – just months before the 15th season was to begin.

An orderly scramble ensued, and a solution was manifested: pop-up concert events! The rest of this season’s shows will be held at the Quinn’s Junction Recreation Complex* (Grace Potter was held at City Park). The challenges didn’t stop there, however, as the location didn’t have parking – or any nearby concession options. PCI kept leaping those hurdles and came up with free luxury shuttles for those who park at the Eccles Center at Park City High School and Richardson Flat. And, for the ever-important food, they coordinated their brilliant Food Truck Court. (*UPDATE: On Friday, July 27, Park City City Council approved the request to move all remaining summer concerts to City Park; all other details remain the same.)

The Riverhorse Provisions Food Truck is pretty darn cute. Photo courtesy: Park City Institute

FOOD TRUCK COURT
If you ask us, the quality of the selection at the Food Truck Court alone is a draw to attend these PCI pop-ups! Check out who parks at each party:

Riverhorse Provisions
You can pre-order picnics for the Big Stars, Bright Nights events from Riverhorse Provisions’ adorable food truck (well, really, for any occasion, but you can pick them up on-site at PCI’s pop-ups). Choose from the Southern Basket with fried chicken and creamy macaroni salad, the Falafel Box with falafel and tabbouleh, the Seafood Pack with shrimp cocktail and pasta salad – we could go on and on, but don’t make us because seriously, we’re getting hungry.

Freshie’s Lobster Co.
Park-City born-and-based Freshie’s is the home of the best lobster roll in the world, and those lobster rolls are up for grabs at each Big Stars, Bright Nights concert! The rolls come in three sizes, the Tourist, for those who only want 2 oz of fresh Maine lobster (just curious whether that size has ever been sold…), the Real Mainah, with 4 oz., and the XL, with 5 oz. of the good stuff. Ayuh.

Spencer’s Smokin’ Grill
Now, if you’re more in the mood for BBQ – head on over to Spencer’s. Pulled Pork, Pulled Chicken, BBQ Beans, Dirty Rice, Tri-Tip, and, of course, Cornbread can be found here. Few things could be more fun than a full rack at a concert.

Praise Cheezus Gourmet Grilled Cheese
This one is pretty self-explanatory – toasty, gooey, delicious grilled cheese! From savory cheezus choices (The Old Testament concoction has gouda, cheddar, swiss, and garlic cream cheese spread), to sweet cheezus (The Trinity has brie, triple berry compote, and wild honey) – these grilled cheese sandwiches are practically a spiritual experience.

Wasatch Creamery Ice Cream Company
Speaking of spiritual experiences, whatever you do while you’re at the events, *do not* miss the Wasatch Creamery ice cream bike. Flavors like Salted Oreo (do not even come near us with that because we cannot stop eating it), Lavender Blueberry, Peaches-n-Buttermilk, Peaches-n-Bourbon, Summer Strawberry (the most fresh thing we’ve ever tasted in our entire life), and Mango Sorbet, along with TONS of others, with more constantly being beta tested, are available at this station while supplies last.

Of course, attendees are always welcome to pack picnics, snacks, and beverages (you’re asked to avoid glassware for safety reasons), but with these world-class options *right there,* why bother?

THE SHOWS
Upcoming shows include Monday’s Chris Blue concert, Corinne Bailey Rae, and The Wallflowers. If you’d like to attend any of these upcoming events, you can buy tickets online, call or visit the Eccles Center Box Office (435-655-3114), or buy tickets at the on-site box office on the afternoon of the event.

SUPPORT
Mission Statement: To enrich the community by providing innovative experiences that entertain, educate and illuminate.

To accomplish this goal, PCI depends on membership and donations. Learn more about membership opportunities HERE. Each level of membership includes advance ticket purchase options, invitations to special events and Members Only events, and recognition in Eccles Center Main Stage Playbills. Some memberships include tickets to events, early event entry, and parking passes.

Sales Update | Summer 2018

July 10, 2018 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

Land and home sales at The Colony over the past 12 months tell a pretty incredible story – take a few moments to watch our Summer 2018 Sales Update video (below) for an outline. Things continue to move quickly here – in fact, in the time it took to produce this video, two additional lots have closed, and a third homesite – as well as a home – are under contract.

Connect with Bronson Calder and Stephen Jeffers, members of the in-house Colony Sales Team with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Utah, to begin building your legacy at The Colony!

A Colony Sales Team Announcement

July 10, 2018 by Molly Miller, Colony PR

The Colony is pleased to congratulate Bronson Calder, Kurt Peterson, and Stephen Jeffers of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, on their expanded leadership roles at The Colony at White Pine Canyon. Our longtime listing agent, Bob Marsh has elected to relinquish his role as our principal Colony listing agent and Bronson has assumed the lead position on our expanded Colony team, which includes Kurt, Stephen, Bob, and Cindy Salrin.

Bob Marsh and developer Walt Brett conducted an extensive search to find experts who share the philosophy that has made The Colony such a special ski-in, ski-out community. Bronson, Kurt, and Stephen’s enthusiasm, expertise and deep knowledge of Park City and The Colony make them the perfect team to continue The Colony legacy.

The Colony Sales Team
Bronson Calder was born and raised in Park City, steeped in his family’s real estate tradition. Nearly 20 years ago, Bronson formed a business partnership with long-time colleague, Kurt Peterson. The Peterson-Calder Real Estate Group has consistently been in the top 1% of Park City’s agents, with more than 800 transaction sides and approximately $600 million sold.

Stephen Jeffers hails from Lake Tahoe, California. After college, he elected to build on his family’s real estate legacy in the Tahoe/Reno area. Stephen joined The Colony team in 2017 and feels honored to represent our project. He is a descendant of the Condas family, the original landowners of The Colony at White Pine Canyon.

Cindy Salrin got her real estate license in 2008 and has enjoyed her job as a licensed assistant for the past 10 years. Being ensconced in the majestic setting of The Colony makes it easy for her to love her job here – lucky for us because she keeps the entire team together.

Going forward, as Bronson leads the team, he’ll have the benefit of Bob Marsh’s expertise and institutional knowledge. After nearly 20 years of intense focus on building The Colony brand, Bob will switch from overseeing the day-to-day operations to the listing of properties within The Colony. It has been fascinating for Bob to watch this project grow from its humble beginning into what it has become today. Bob’s passion for The Colony continues, and knowing that he will remain on our team providing support and continued involvement with the project and sales team is very reassuring.

Connect with Us
Please reach out to Bronson and the team anytime. They have a presence in The Colony offices 7 days a week. Utilize their knowledge for any questions you may have about our project – real-estate related or not. They are your most knowledgeable and trusted sources for information about this incredible community. We also invite you to follow updates on our website and on our social channels: Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

Sincerely,
Walt Brett and The Colony Team

Do:

If you’ve ever wanted to try your hand at ceramics, Kimball Art Center offers an open clay studio event each Friday. Perfect for first-timers, you’ll begin with a wheel throwing demonstration (don’t worry, it’s much easier than it sounds), and can then create anything you wish. Space is limited, so it may be a worth a call before heading over.
435.649.8882

Watch:

I, Tonya, the life story of figure skater Tonya Harding, plays for three nights (Fri-Sun) at the Jim Sandy Auditorium. The film, directed by Craig Gillespie, covers everything from Harding’s Olympic career to her life following the attack on fellow skater Nancy Kerrigan.

Play:

President’s Day is roughly the mid-point of the ski season. So, if you haven’t done it yet, book a day of heli-skiing with Wasatch Powderbird Guides. With locations at Snowbird Resort and in Park City, Powderbird’s gets you to the goods – fast!

Olympics:

We called around town to find a few places to catch up on the Games. Here are our picks:

No Name Saloon, Butcher’s Chop House & Bar, and Boneyard & Wine Dive will be airing the games at all three locations. Butcher’s does have a 166″ projector screen as well.

The Eating Establishment will be airing the Olympics on all three of their TVs, from opening to closing ceremonies.

Fletchers will have the Olympics on as well, with the lounge being a great place to watch the Games.

Deer Valley Resort will have TV’s set up in the EBS lounge, and also the clock room for viewing anytime.

Versante at Park City Peaks Hotel will offer food and drink specials during the Games, with live action on several TV’s.

Billy Blanco’s (at the Jeremy Ranch exit) will be showing all the Olympic action on their 8+ large HDTVs.
