Arts Council to reveal Music in the Mountains lineup at May 2 Give Big event

ARTS COUNCIL OF BIG SKY

The Arts Council of Big Sky will announce this year’s Music in the Mountains concert lineup on Thursday, May 2, at The Waypoint in the Big Sky Town Center.

The highly anticipated lineup reveal coincides with Big Sky’s annual Give Big Fest, which features local nonprofits coming together for a 24-hour celebration of giving. Give Big is a great opportunity to support the community by making donations to local organizations and helps keep Music in the Mountains admission free, along with supporting other year-round programming.

Celebrate and kick off this year’s event with the Arts Council and Big Sky’s other incredible nonprofit organizations by participating in Give Big Fest at the event. Test your knowledge of the Big Sky community by visiting with representatives from various Big Sky nonprofit organizations to answer questions on our special Give Big Bingo card. Enter your completed card into a drawing for a big prize basket! When you make a donation to any Big Sky nonprofit, you’ll receive a token to redeem at The Waypoint that night for either popcorn and a soda or a pint during the event.

“We’re excited to partner with all of the great nonprofits we have here in Big Sky,” Brian Hurlbut, Arts Council executive director, said. “It’s always a fun event, and we’re looking forward to announcing the summer music lineup as well.”

The event starts at 6 p.m. and there is no admission charge. Browse the local nonprofits and enjoy appetizer and drink specials from The Waypoint. At 7:30 p.m. the Arts Council will begin the lineup reveal, followed immediately by live music from the Tuesday Night Rodeo Club.

This year marks the 15th anniversary of hosting Music in the Mountains in the Town Center’s Len Hill Park. The free concert series brings nationally touring musicians along with up and coming emerging artists to Big Sky throughout the summer for a night of family friendly fun, and has been voted Big Sky’s Best Annual Event for the past two years. The music starts on June 20 this year and runs through Sept. 12. For more information please visit bigskyarts.org.
