It was May of 1978 when the idea of a Bigfork Festival of the Arts was first proposed.
As so often happens in Bigfork, it started with a conversation on Electric Ave. between members of the community.
In this case, George and Elna Darrow, Jim Manley, Gerald and Sally Askevold, Don Thomson, David Shaner and Jeff Wilson were discussing how nice it would be to have a gathering of some kind during the summer season. From that original group came the energy to turn the idea into a reality.
It was decided by this group that an arts festival would be a great event for Bigfork and that the first weekend in August would be a good time to hold such an event.
Over the years hundreds of dedicated volunteers have continued to expand and enhance the festival, making it an established summer tradition for people from all over Montana and the Pacific Northwest.
