The Pinedale Fine Arts Council (PFAC) will host their bi-annual Kentucky Derby Fundraiser on Saturday, May 4 at the Sublette County Fair Grounds. Proceeds benefit PFAC’s extensive school arts programs in Pinedale and Big Piney.

Centered around the actual Kentucky Derby, the PFAC event starts with a full broadcast of the Derby on the fairground’s giant projection screen by a 6-team stick horse obstacle race featuring local businesses as the jockeys. After the race is a full prime rib dinner (this year catered by The Den). Add in a custom photo booth, a hat contest, whiskey raffles and silent auctions and you’ll have a pretty good grasp of the event.

"It’s pretty crazy when you think about all the different things we try to pull off," Tim Ruland, PFAC Executive says. "It’s really five or six events crammed into one."

And while the Derby Fundraiser bills itself as Sublette County’s biggest party, at the heart of the event is PFAC’s school programs which students in both the Pinedale and Big Piney School districts.

"It’s not just that the students enjoy the programs, and the teachers request them year after year," Ruland explains. "It’s that the exposure to the arts is setting them up for success later in life - and that’s powerful."

Tickets for PFAC’s Kentucky Derby Fundraiser are $50 and are available at Office Outlets (Pinedale & Big Piney) and online at pinedalefinearts.com. Tickets will also be available at the door.
