If you are visiting Keystone Resort during the weekend of July 20th through the 22nd, you may want to head to the Lake Dillon Arts Festival.  Dillon is just a few miles from our properties in Keystone, and it makes for a fantastic day trip during your vacation to Summit County.  Admission to the three-day festival is free, and artists will be present during the entire festival so that you can meet them, ask questions and personalize any purchases you choose to make.  65 of Colorado, and the rest of the country's best artists will be showcased during the event.  All of the artist have been hand selected.

The festival will be located in Downtown Dillon, located at Lake Dillon Drive and Teller.  The festivals runs from 9am to 6pm on the 20th, 10am to 6pm on the 21st, and 11am to 5pm on the 22nd.  Work will include oil, acrylic, watercolor, pastel, charcoal and mixed media paintings, along with glass sculptures, stone and bronze art.  Also be sure to look for ceramics, inlaid wood bowls, one of a kind jewelry, black and white and color photography, and silk fabrics.  In other words, there will something for everyone!  As you look around at the art, acoustic music will be performed all day, by Skanson and Hanson.

There are plenty of other activities to do while you visit Dillon from taking in the views or spending time at the marina on Dillon Lake, to visiting the many shops and restaurants that the town offers.  If you are also looking for outdoor adventure, you may want to try the rec path for biking, or rent a boat from the canoe for some time on the lake.  If you are ready to plan your vacation to Summit County, Colorado, contact one of our vacation planners today to get details on the best lodging available!
