and central hub. The nonprofit plays a
role in education and bringing together
the patrons of the city for rotating
exhibitions and annual events. One of its
most anticipated yearly festivals is the
Kimball Arts Festival, next held July 31
to August 2, 2020. The festival, presented
by Park City Hospital and the Center’s
primary fundraiser, features more than
225 national jury-selected artists who
exhibit their works in tents along Main
Street. Among the highlights of the
festival is the ticketed Art Starts Here
gala that includes a live auction with
one-of-a-kind experiences available to
bid on. In the past, bidders have vied for
the chance to mingle with the New York
Rangers in their locker room and attend
a post-game press conference; travel to
various countries in South America; and
custom artwork by award-winning artists.
Also calling the region home is artist
William Kranstover, who participates in
pop-ups in the city and has his studio space
just outside Park City in downtown Peoa.
