Saints & Sinners Masquerade Gala Highlights Summit County's Mid-March Arts Events

Park City Performing Arts brought its annual Saints and Sinners Masquerade Gala to the St. Regis Deer Valley on Saturday, drawing guests in black-tie attire to 2300 Deer Valley Drive East for an evening that included champagne sabering, a full-plated dinner, a live-auction paddle raise, and live music performed by the Fox Brothers. The silent auction tied to the event remains open through today, March 18, with bidding accessible via parkcitypa.org.

The gala served as the primary fundraiser for Park City Performing Arts, whose stated priorities this year center on expanding outreach for Summit County students, continuing Creative Aging Initiatives for older community members, and broadening veteran access to performances through $5 veteran tickets. Registration for future gala seating is available at tinyurl.com/ys3vvw9f.

Mid-March brought two additional community events to the county. The St. Patty's Bar Crawl ran Saturday through Tuesday across Kimball Junction, hitting Park City Brewing at 1764 Uinta Way C1, Maxwell's at 1456 Newpark Blvd., and Ele Bar at 1640 Redstone Center Dr. #105. Red Rock Brewing, located near Ele Bar, featured a St. Patrick's Day menu on Saturday and Tuesday. Participants who completed all tastings on the St. Patty's Bar Crawl bingo card became eligible for an opportunity drawing; bingo cards were available at any of the participating venues from Saturday onward.

Looking ahead, the Kamas Library Classic Cinema Series screens Billy Wilder's 1944 film noir "Double Indemnity" at 6 p.m. on Thursday, March 19, at the Summit County Library Kamas Valley Branch, 110 Main St., in Kamas. The free screening features Barbara Stanwyck and Fred MacMurray as lovers plotting to kill Stanwyck's husband for the insurance payout. No registration is listed; admission is free.

Peace House's Annual Spring Luncheon was also noted in the Park Record's mid-March listings, though event details had not been released at press time.
