Just over 150 miles from Yellowstone National Park, near Montana’s Beartooth Mountains, lies Tippet Rise. The 10,000-acre working sheep and cattle ranch is both thrumming with art—site-specific sculptures, a concert hall, an open-air performance venue—and humbling in the wide-open vistas and vastness of the landscape and sky. “It’s been our lifelong dream,” says Cathy Halstead, a painter, who opened Tippet Rise in 2016 with her pianist and poet husband Peter. “Our experiences as artists compelled us to create a place where music, art and nature could be experienced in harmony with one another.” In May, the duo announced the commission of a 1,900-sq.-ft. pavilion by architect Francis Kéré that will feature a log canopy made from locally sourced lumber. “We want it to be a communal gathering place,” says Halstead. Whether visitors snack or sketch, make music or small talk—well, that’s entirely up to them. —Kate Rockwood
