RAYMOND PLANK CENTER
Located in the Park at Ucross, the Raymond Plank Center is a unique space created to honor the legacy of our founder. Raymond Plank was a World War II veteran, business leader, philanthropist, and stalwart individualist. He envisioned Ucross to provide a meeting and working place that would be useful for artists-in-residence, the staff and board, and groups in the community — a multi-disciplinary laboratory for creative thinking. Today, the Raymond Plank Center hosts art exhibitions, educational programs, conferences, and special events, including the beloved annual Ucross Community Christmas Celebration.
UPCOMING EVENT
9th Annual Ucross Community Christmas Celebration
Saturday, December 11, 4-6 p.m.
Fireworks, carols, treats — Ucross invites the community to the nonprofit's 9th annual Christmas celebration on Saturday, December 11, beginning at 4 p.m. sharp.
As always, bestselling author and longtime Ucross neighbor Craig Johnson will read a new Christmas story. This year's event will also include Christmas carols by the Buffalo Balladiers, a piano performance by Ebenezer Eferobor, crafts for children, festive refreshments, and more. The festivities will culminate at 6 p.m. in the lighting of thousands of Christmas tree lights, the firing of a cannon, and fireworks by Bruce Burns and crew.
In the spirit of Christmas, guests are asked to bring canned and non-perishable food items, which will be donated to local community food pantries for families in need.
This event is free and open to all. Learn more.

The Raymond Plank Center, open only for special events or by request, is located at the intersection of Highways 14 and 16 in Ucross. To inquire about using the space, please contact (307) 737-2291 or info@ucross.org.
