The Arts Council incorporates numerous outreach programs designed to reach different sectors of the community. We collaborate with other organizations, including the Big Sky School District, Discovery Academy, Big Sky Community Organization, and many others. Learn about our current outreach programs in our community:
This annual collaboration with Montana Ballet and the Big Sky School District reaches all second graders, who learn about theater etiquette, dance programming and what it takes to turn a production into reality. Includes classroom sessions and a field trip to Bozeman for a behind-the-scenes look at "The Nutcracker."
Brings our annual Mountainfilm celebration into the schools with a specially curated screening and corresponding lesson plans for students.
Each year we bring a culturally rich artist to Big Sky for a multi-day residence in collaboration with the Big Sky School District. During their time at school, the artist works with a partner teacher to deliver two days of workshops that aim to help students build a deeper, authentic understanding of diverse cultures through the arts. Past mediums have included poetry, dance, music, fashion, and visual art. The residence culminates in a free, public performance at a local venue.
