Join us for an evening celebrating the arts and media at the University of Montana—paying tribute to our current students, past alumni, and their artistic journeys. We will feature students across the College of the Arts and Media (CAM) and are proud to applaud the many contributions and achievements of vlogger, videographer, author, musician, philanthropist, and internet producer Hank Green as our 2024 honoree.
