Join us at the Art Center for the opening reception of this month’s Exhibition in the Wilkins Gallery on Friday, March 4, from 5 to 7 p.m. You’ll have the first look at this month’s exhibition, and maybe even meet some of the artists. The show celebrates the talents of Indigenous artists in Montana and features ledger art, cradleboards, and works of contemporary beadwork. We’ll offer some light refreshments, but alcohol will no longer be served during Opening Receptions until further notice. This exhibition will be on display for one month, and is worth visiting in person.

Back by popular demand, “Always…Patsy Cline” will make a return to Fort Peck Summer Theatre, completing the 2022 line up. A runaway hit from Fort Peck Summer Theatre’s 2015 season, the musical will perform for two weekends only, July 15 – July 24. Based on a true story about Cline’s friendship with a fan from Houston named Louise Seger, the musical is full of down-home country humor, true emotion and even some audience participation. It includes over two dozen of Cline’s greatest hits, including “Crazy,” “I Fall to Pieces” and “Walking After Midnight.”
