CONCERT: International Guitar Night

Back in Ketchum for a fourth season, International Guitar Night is celebrating its 20th anniversary and has become the toughest ticket to get on The Center’s performing arts season. Each year, founder Brian Gore invites four of the world’s best guitarists to tour together for two months in Europe and two months in North America. This year, Brian has put together his most eclectic lineup yet: guest host Mike Dawes (England) and his incredible two-hand contemporary style, joined by one of last season’s IGN stars, from Turkey, Cenk Erdoğan; electrifying jazz virtuoso Olli Soikkeli from Finland; and Hawaiian Slack Key master Jim Kimo West.

Every performer in the Winter Performing Arts Series will be performing in local schools as a part of Sun Valley Museum of Art's ongoing commitment to arts education.

The Professional Artist Residencies are supported by Joyce B. Friedman in memory of Norman Friedman, Robin Leavitt and Terry Friedlander, Lloyd Construction, Inc., Jane Rosen and Scott Miley—Scott Miley Roofing, Kay Tenney and Bozo Cardozo, Bex Wilkinson and the Marshall Frankel Foundation, and in part by public funding for the arts through the National Endowment for the Arts, WESTAF, the Idaho Commission on the Arts and the Idaho Legislature.
