Dance. Drink. Donate. We invite you to party at The Crested Butte Mountain Theatre (CBMT) August 2nd, 7pm – 11pm featuring live music from the Lakewood Area Band. Please join us for an unforgettable night filled with music, theater, and generosity. Let us come together as a community to support your local historic theater focusing on entertaining, educating, and enriching the greater Gunnison Valley through live theater. Our goal is to raise $10,000, which will be matched dollar for dollar, doubling the impact of your contribution. By donating early, you may even help us reach our match by the end of the party! Your presence at the event will not only make this party a real celebration of local theater, but also will enable us to continue our unique work for the community of the Gunnison Valley. Tickets are limited! Be sure to secure your spot before they sell out. To get your tickets and to donate, click here: crestedbuttemountaintheatre.org
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
