Horses and Bears Event: Tuesday, February 20th

A man synonymous with giving back to his community and preserving the legacy of a western art legend is honored as a Montana Heritage Keeper by the Montana Historical Society.

A formal presentation of the award will be given at the first concert of the season by the Great Falls Municipal Band.

Montana is home to more than 260 developed and natural geothermal sites. Huge resorts that once entertained the state’s wealthiest residents and off-the-beaten-path hot spots favored by locals. So we were curious: Where did Montana’s hot springs come from, and where are they going?

Attendees were able to learn about buffalo art featured on the kites, and also had the opportunity to create and fly their own kite.
