The Arts Council of Big Sky will present the 22nd annual Madrigal Dinner, on Monday, Dec. 3, at 5 p.m. in the Montana Room at Buck’s T-4 Lodge. This event is considered by many in the Big Sky community as the traditional opening of the holiday season and an annual highlight. The Madrigal Dinner is a joint production between the Arts Council of Big Sky and the Montana State University School of Music.
Tickets for the event can be purchased in advance and include a three-course dinner prepared by the chefs at Buck’s T-4, as well as festive music from the Montanans, the MSU Brass Quintet and the MSU Chorale. The occasion typically sells out so tickets are by advanced reservation only.
“The Madrigal Dinner is a fun, festive event,” said ACBS Executive Director Brian Hurlbut. “Not only is the food amazing, but the singing from the Montana State students is incredible.”
The evening begins with a no-host bar at 5 p.m., followed by seating for the dinner promptly at 6 p.m., in preparation for the Ceremonial Procession of the Lord and Lady of the Manor and their guests. Olde English customs are the theme throughout the evening, including fanfares introducing the Ceremonial Procession, the Wassail Bowl and Christmas Toast, the Boar’s Head Procession and the Flaming Pudding Dessert.
The MSU Montanans serenade guests throughout the evening and the MSU Chorale presents a concert finale. The dinner closes with the audience joining the musicians in singing familiar carols.
This year marks the 53rd annual Madrigal Dinner, produced by the MSU School of Music, and the 22nd year the production has traveled to Big Sky.
The Arts Council of Big Sky is a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing musical and artistic performances to the Big Sky area. For more information call (406) 995-2742 or visit bigskyarts.org.

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.
