New Event!
Sheep Reads

Festival Book Club

We are so excited to be offering a new event this year, Book Club!

Pick up a copy of "Sweet Promised Land" this summer and finish it before joining us for this Book Club discussion on Saturday morning of the Festival. Diane Peavey, Festival co-founder and author, will lead the conversation. (For the locals, books are available to borrow from

the Hailey Public Library and The Community Library in Ketchum. But, once you have read this beautiful book, you will wish you had bought your own copy to read again and again. It is the quintessential story of how our rugged western landscapes became home not only to so many Basque, Scottish and Peruvian sheep men and their families, but all of us who came from elsewhere and now cannot imagine life without sweeping western landscapes.)
