Art.Write.Now.Tour
Through March 17, 2017
Jessie Wilber Gallery
Don't miss the opportunity to see this national exhibit! The
Art.Write.Now.Tour features work of student artists, grades 7-12, from around the nation. In 2016, nearly 320,000 students submitted original works for consideration; of these, 50 fine art and writing works were chosen to travel along with the exhibit tour.
Our next exhibit,
Our Perspectives: Art Right Now, is a follow up to our current exhibit. This group show representing the creative talents of youth from our area introduces students to formal exhibiting procedures, the possibilities for personal recognition, and encourage artistic pursuit. This inaugural exhibit will further the Emerson's mission of fostering lifelong appreciation and understanding of the arts and culture by engaging the next generation of local artists.
There will be an opening reception for this exhibit Friday, March 24 from 5:00-7:00PM. Stop by and support our Montana high school artists!

Ballerinas filling the halls are a staple of the Emerson's second floor thanks to The Dance Center! With classical ballet and modern dance, The Dance Center blends technique and artistry to create meaningful expression. Students discover the magic of movement while classical technique fuels exploration.
Owners Anna Hall & Deborah Yarington are dancers/teachers that are continually evolving to make The Dance Center the premier dance school in Bozeman! We are honored that The Dance Center has called the Emerson home for over a decade.

INSIDE THE EMERSON |
|
| |
| Emerson History The Emerson is a thriving arts and community center located a block from historic downtown Bozeman. The building was originally an elementary school built in 1918, attended by thousands of Bozeman youth before its closure in 1991.  |
Support the Emerson At the Emerson, we are grateful for the generous community support that allows us to serve as a vital arts hub in Bozeman. Over 250,000 people have come to the Emerson each year to attend performances, take classes, and participate in community events.  |
Volunteer with the Emerson As a community arts hub, the Emerson relies on the time, energy and enthusiasm donated by community volunteers and interns. You can get involved by becoming a docent, by helping with events, children's classes or in our office.  |
