Ever heard of “Girl Dinner”? Filled with yummy small bites and your favorite snacks, we wanted this film tour to be reflective of the dinners we love so much – short films that have range. These stories will fill you up with rad skiing, deep storytelling and good humor – just like your favorite mix of food for “girl dinner.”
From deep B.C. powder to steep Utah lines, this year’s films are packed with wild adventures, plenty of laughs, heartfelt moments, and the friendships that make chasing big goals even more fun. Each event will showcase 5 films and live music followed by a Q+A and poster signing with the athletes and filmmakers who brought the films to life. We hope these screenings will provide a space to continue the celebration of women in snow sports. All are welcome!
The event will run approximately two hours.

BOZEMAN DOC SERIES:
UNION TOWN
| | |
The Bozeman Doc Series continues with the Montana premiere of the critically acclaimed new documentary, Union Town, from Oscar-winning director Barbara Kopple.
Union Town completes Kopple’s trilogy on labor rights following her Oscar-winning Harlan County USA and American Dream, two landmark cinéma vérité documentaries. The film chronicles essential workers in New York City’s last-mile delivery industry amid an explosive resurgence of organized labor in the nation’s largest metropolis. Interweaving struggles within UPS, Amazon, and the mostly immigrant app-based bike delivery workforce, Union Town uncovers the human face of modern labor and organizing. Filmed over the course of three years, the film asks what solidarity means in a world divided between those who have power, and those who must fight for it.
Union Town world-premiered at the prestigious Venice International Film Festival to universal acclaim and had its North American premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September of 2026.

The ReCollection

About the work
This exhibition represents a selection of the work completed during a 2025/26 sabbatical from my position teaching ceramics at the MSU School of Art. In addition to conducting research at important European centers of porcelain production, including Sèvres in France, and Meissen in Germany, I spent time engaged with building “The ReCollection”, an expansive project to recast my childhood toy collection in porcelain.
In the 1980’s, television advertising was deregulated to allow marketing directly to children, resulting in a wave of new cartoons and a ‘golden era’ of action-figures that corresponded with my upbringing. (He-Man, WWF, Star Wars and many more) I’m curious how this phenomenon affected my generation, and I have been exploring these consequences in my studio. By remaking the hyper-masculine and often violent characters in a delicate, precious material such as porcelain I want to alter and complicate the viewer’s interpretation of the subject.
Recently, the project has expanded to include remixing 18th Century decorative arts objects with action-figures resulting in a peculiar fictional souvenir. I have become particularly interested in connections to historical European traditions of porcelain figurines; how they functioned in culture and what they represented. The action-figure/figurine mashup contains several creative strategies and approaches common within contemporary visual art, including ideas of copying, appropriation, recombination and recontextualization in order to arrive at something new. This series also investigates notions of memory and nostalgia, branding, collector culture, and consumerism.

Erratic Journey
BY LEAH CUPINO
| | |
Erratic Journey
Leah Cupino
Weaver Room Gallery, and Galleria Hall Popup Gallery
Cupino’s Erratic Journey follows the unbelievable miles-long migration of boulders torn from mountainsides by glacial migration during our home planet’s transition into a new age.
In moving picture, silk, fibers, and paint, she calls us to commemorate loss, embrace greater timelines of transformation, and encourages us to celebrate the immortality of our shared spirit.
Erratic /Ə’radik/
1. noun: a rock that travels great distances over time, by glacier or other natural forces
2. adj; unpredictable
3. root Latin: errāre: to wander
In paintings and film, I join themes of displacement with transformation and remain curious about what it means to simply be a part of this earth.
The materials and color I use in my work ask us to evaluate the worn-down trails of accepted facts to a deeper evaluation of purpose. I embrace with giddiness the idea that defied expectations can be a gift to all.

Unmistakably Western

Unmistakably Western

Lobby Gallery
Unmistakably Western is a show about larger-than-life cowgirls, all hat, boots, style, and attitude. I start with my studio photographs, then use paint to push the images even further. In select works, I incorporate my Montana street photographs into the background, placing cowboys and hippies side by side on the same piece of art. It’s unmistakably Western, but it's far from traditional.
| | - Stop by Homeroom, our public art space! It's open to everyone and we currently have a still life display setup to compliment Jeremy Hatch's "The Recollection" currently shown in our Jessie Wilber Gallery.

HISTORIC EMERSON IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
HAS BEGUN!
| | |
We've encountered an obstacle!
During excavation, an old (and very large) gas pipe was discovered directly beneath the sidewalk. Before we can move forward with the remaining work, the pipe needs to be relocated.
There’s plenty happening behind the scenes as we work through this unexpected issue. While visible progress is temporarily on pause, we’re working to get things back on track and will share more updates as soon as we can.
Thanks for your patience and support!
This is adjusting the price of the total project up and we would love your support! Donate today to help us raise the funds for this historic Emerson Improvement Project!
Big shoutout to PRG Commercial!
