At Southgate Mall, June 22-25, 2006

MMAC was honored to participate in the Lewis and Clark in the Rockies Bicentennial Festival at Southgate Mall, June 22-25. We were able to meet people from all over the country who traveled to Montana to celebrate Lewis and Clark's Expedition. At the Festival we were able to promote and display prints from our current exhibition, and two of our traveling exhibitions; Charles Fritz, An Artist with the Corps of Discovery- The Lewis and Clark Suite (currently at the Yellowstone Art Museum in Billings), and Contemporary Native American Art (openning in New Town, North Dakota on August 1). Thanks from us to all those who worked to plan the Festival, and all those who stopped by to say "hello."
