Step #1 has been to work out the many discrepancies we have on our property lines. Decades of handshakes and supposed fencepost agreements has left quite the mess to clean up. Fortunately we have great neighbors and things are getting straightened out! Who knew there would be so many hoops to jump through at the county building. We also have an incredible surveyor on our team who has been a huge help in diving into the intricate history of the property. Soon we'll be down to one plot number and then on to the next step in the process.

The dream is finally for real on its way to becoming a reality! We have found an incredible General Contractor and funding for this amazing project. There are still so many steps to go through, so we plan to document our process here.
What are we building? The Blue Barn will be a Cultural and Event Center anchored by an Art Gallery with revolving exhibits of local artists. You'll enter The Blue Barn through the art gallery and continue through past active art studios into the main event space that can be rented for community/corporate events, private parties and weddings. The building will be a beautiful modern barn built for hosting events—full catering kitchen, bride and groom rooms, and even an outdoor ceremony space including a water feature. If the weather turns nasty we'll keep you covered, hosting your event in the art gallery, the main event space or even our second building we call "The Conservatory" — think beautiful greenhouse with indoor water feature and a gorgeous green live-wall as the backdrop for your event. We're planning plenty of parking for your guests and access is super convenient. The property is located right off of SR36 in Lake Point, UT. We plan on being a hub of activity for all the Tooele Valley communities. When will construction start? We are currently working with engineering to get all the plans finalized and hope to start pushing dirt around in the Spring of 2020. |
