The ground has been broken outside of the Town Center, and
Andy Watson of Freestone Productions, the Montana PBR production
company, has been moving dirt and begun building the
arena in preparation for the big events Aug. 2 and 3.
Tickets for the first ever Professional Bull Riding (PBR) event
in Big Sky are nearly 70 percent sold out; remaining tickets can
be purchased online at explorebigsky.com and at local outlets
including: Country Market, 320 Guest Ranch, Choppers, Mail
& More, Bugaboo, Big Sky Resort and Outlaw Partners.
Slated for Aug. 2 is the pre-event at the PBR arena featuring live
music by Montana native and Nashville recording artist Jessica
Kilroy. At the pre-party there will be a meet and greet with the
PBR cowboys, and a Calcutta, where participants bet on the
cowboys’ performance and winners keep the pool. 50 percent of
proceeds from the Calcutta will go to Yellowstone Club Community
Foundation. There is no cost for the pre-party; cash bar
and food will be available for purchase.
Aug. 3, the day of the main event, the vendor village will open
at 5 p.m. with pre-event music (TBA) and a variety of food and
drink items, local businesses, arts and crafts and a cash bar.
Gates will open at 5:30 p.m. to ticket holders, and at 7 p.m., the
fun begins. Stick around for the after-party in the vendor village
with live music from The Dirty Shame all at no charge. There
will be a cash bar.
Don’t forget to sign children up (must be under six years of age
and under 60 lbs) for Mutton Bustin’, sponsored by Moonlight
Basin, an event similar to bull riding but on a smaller
scale; the children ride local sheep across the arena—a
genuine crowd-pleaser. Spots are filling up fast. Contact
Danielle at (406) 995-2055 or danielle@theoutlawpartners.
com to register.
The Big Sky PBR signature event was also

of Commerce. All live music events are
presented by Blue Ribbon Builders.

We all are familiar with using a limited palette, but do you use one? Do you know how to use a limited palette to create different color combinations? Are you tired of carrying around 15-20 different tubes when you paint plein air? Have you ever wanted to create a certain “mood” in a painting but failed? Do you create a lot of mud? Do you struggle to achieve color harmony? All these problems are addressed in John’s workbook in clear and concise language!
Based on the bestselling “Limited Palatte, Unlimited Color” workbook written by John Pototschnik, the workshop is run by Maggie Shane and Annie McCoy, accomplished landscape (acrylic) and plein air (oil) artists,exhibitors at the Big Sky Artists’ Studio & Gallery and members of the Big Sky Artists Collective.
Each student will receive a copy of “Limited Palette, Unlimited Color” to keep and take home to continue your limited palette journey. We will show you how to use the color wheel and mix your own clean mixtures to successfully create a mood for your paintings.
Each day, we will create a different limited palette color chart and paint a version of a simple landscape using John’s directives. You will then be able to go home and paint more schemes using the book for guidance.
Workshop is open to painters (oil or acrylic) of any level although students must have some basic knowledge of the medium he or she uses. Students will be provided the book ($92 value), color wheel, value scale and canvas papers to complete the daily exercises.
