Bigfork Festival of the Arts returns this weekend

The 44th annual Bigfork Festival of the Arts is set to take place this weekend in downtown Bigfork. The event is a favorite among artists and visitors alike. The Bigfork Area Chamber of Commerce is asking for patience as they navigate new regulations and a new layout for the festival this year. The festival showcases local artists and craftspeople as well as food, music and other entertainment— with many vendors expressing that this is their favorite show of the summer. Parking is available at the Bigfork School parking lot, on Electric Avenue (via Bridge Street) and Bethany Lutheran Church on Highway 35. There will be limited handicap parking at the UPS Store on Grand Avenue, decal is required. The Chamber is asking for additional volunteers. A link to the signup sheet can be found here, or under the event’s page on the Chamber’s website. The Bigfork Festival of the Arts will run from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
