Cotton Jones / JH Fart Festival

It's Fall Arts Festival time in Jackson Hole, and that means less families and more art collecting couples and culture starved locals converging on downtown Jackson.

Surprisingly the best cultural event this week doesn't have a thing to do with the FAF. One of my favorite indie bands, Cotton Jones, will be playing here on Monday the 14th at the Bait Shop.

Check them out:



Affectionately called the Fart Festival by many good humored locals, the 2009 FAF runs from September 10-20. For those of us who live here year round, this is our favorite weekend of the year, a few days to enjoy the sunshine (hopefully) with your friends, sample incredible food, and reclaim the downtown from the gapers. And, uh, see some art.

Tammy Christel has a brief guide to several key events here.

And Robyn Vincent's playbook is here.

Also, some great local writing about Jackson's most famous homeless resident, Ms. Hill.
