Five Point Film Festival: On the Road
Please join us at 6pm at the Gunnison Library on Friday, August 22 for an on-the-road film festival from the Five Point Film Fest. The 5Point Adventure Film Festival is a four-day event that celebrates stories of adventure, with a focus on positive social and environmental change. It’s held annually in Carbondale, Colorado, and features a curated selection of films, live music, guest speakers, workshops, and community gatherings. The festival is guided by five core principles: commitment, respect, humility, purpose, and balance. We’ll be screening seven short films at the library: DROP THE MIC WHERE SHE LANDS WELCOME TO THE PIT IF I DISAPPEAR ASK THE GIRLS IN CAIRO THE BOOK OF GEORGE DEATH OF VILLAINS Visit 5PointFilm.org for film details and more info.

Annual events in Crested Butte and Gunnison
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!
