This weekend in Whitefish, MT

Iron Hill Expo offers a full day focused on strength, performance, and community. Attendees can take part in competitions and challenges, browse vendors and local businesses, and enjoy kids activities, with prizes and giveaways adding to the excitement. Whether you are competing, networking, shopping, or simply showing up to be part of it all, this expo brings everything together in one place.

Enjoy a paint-and-sip session for $45 per painter in a fun, relaxed, creative atmosphere. Bring a bottle of wine, other beverages, and snacks to savor while you paint, and use the available bottle opener and glasses at the studio. All supplies are included, with easy, step-by-step instruction. No experience is necessary, and you are encouraged to choose your own colors and add personal touches. A 25% deposit reserves your spot, with the balance due upon arrival. Cash, credit or debit cards, and local checks are accepted. Private parties for 5 to 40 painters can be scheduled, with one painting choice per group.

Cars and Coffee is a casual meetup for car enthusiasts. Some gatherings include special activities as part of Big Sky Autofest. Attendees are asked to be respectful of the parking lot.

Organized in support of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, this Out of the Darkness community walk centers on connection, hope, and healing on the path toward a future without suicide. Attendees can look forward to an opening ceremony that sets a thoughtful tone, powerful testimonies from survivors and families who have lost loved ones, and Honor Beads that symbolize each person’s relationship to the cause. The route encourages everyone to move together side by side, and a Hope and Resource area features local mental health partners offering information and support. The program creates space to remember those who have died, stand with those who are struggling, and affirm a shared commitment to making mental health a priority and saving lives. Whether personally affected, supporting someone close, or advocating for mental wellness, people of many backgrounds find a place here, carrying a shared message that no one has to walk this journey alone.
