Located at an altitude of 2,900 feet in the spectacular mountains of northwestern Montana, the town of Bigfork hugs a sparkling blue bay where the swift waters of the Swan River flow into Flathead Lake. With more than 180 miles of shoreline, Flathead Lake is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, providing a scenic playground for fishing, boating and all varieties of water recreation.

The town of Bigfork is a picturesque and charming place. World class art galleries, fine restaurants, a 27-hole golf course, live theatre and unique shops can all be found within a quaint Western setting. Located near by, Glacier National Park, the Bob Marshall and the Swan Wilderness areas are full of wildlife and offer endless recreational opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts. Chosen as "One of the 50 Great Towns of the West" and designated as "One of the 100 Best Small Art Towns of the Nation," Bigfork offers you and your family a part of the West that you will never forget. Hope to see you soon!

Enhancement & Preservation

This year a voluntary $1.00 per ticket "Enhancement and Preservation Fee" was initiated by the Foundation Board for all performances at the Bigfork Center for the Performing Arts.
This $1 voluntary fee will help provide funding for upgrading theater equipment such as the fly system, lighting system, as well as purchasing new hearing devices for the hearing impaired and ongoing maintenance of the theater.

We are proud of our Theater by the Bay and the events performed on our stage year round. The recent renovations and dramatic lobby expansion were undertaken for the comfort and safety of our patrons.

Community support has been incredible-- at the close of 2011, we brought down the curtain on the first act of the capital campaign that began in 2008. Our most sincere thank you goes to all who through generous donations made this possible.

Waiting in the wings for the second act is a need to replace a few more important systems. The fly system, now nearly twenty five years old and needs to be replaced with a more efficient, effective and, most importantly, safer mode of operation. For the hearing impaired, a new infrared hearing aid would make the theater experience more enjoyable. The stage lights have seen better days as well, with replacements and repairs an ongoing need.
Please join us in supporting this Center, the iconic image of this tiny Montana village, that is so vital to our community. Your tax deductible gift, whether large or small, is deeply appreciated and clearly needed. It has been said the The Show Must Go On, and in Bigfork that is especially true.

To become a supporter of The Bigfork Center for the Performing Arts, please contact Peggy A. Hinkle at 406-837-4885 or emailinfo@bigforktheater.org.
Thank you!
