BIG SKY – Big Sky community holiday festivities kick off on
Saturday, Dec. 7, with the first annual Big Sky Open Studio Tour and the Big
Sky Discovery Academy’s 2019 Holiday Home Tour.
The studio tour, hosted by the Arts Council of Big Sky, will
commence at 11 a.m. and run until 6 p.m. Between locations in Town Center,
Meadow Village, the canyon and Mountain Village, attendees will be treated to a
free self-guided studio tour visiting 14 local artists. At each stop, artists
will show off their work and walk through their unique creative processes while
visitors enjoy light hors d’oeuvres. Custom stamps will be available at each
studio for collection on a punch card, which will be used to enter participants
in a drawing to win original artwork.
To cap off the day, the Big Sky Discovery Academy will host
their fourth annual holiday home tour to raise funds for the private school. The
tour, beginning at 3:15 p.m. and ending at 8 p.m., travels between three Big
Sky homes, each offering architectural and holiday décor inspiration to
visitors as well as drinks, hors d’oeuvres, an entrée and dessert in a
progressive dinner format. Tour transportation is included in the $75 ticket
but is only available on a first-come-first-serve basis. The tour will end at
the Big Sky Discovery Academy, where a holiday bazaar will await gift shoppers.
