During your next trip to Montana, make a point to visit newly opened Montana Heritage Center.
A long time coming, the Helena-located, 165,000-square-foot facility required more than 20 years of planning, and now offers three galleries tracing the state’s history and heritage. The Homeland Gallery reflects 10,000 years of Montana history. The Russell Gallery highlights the artwork of Charles M. Russell. The Changing Gallery will, as its name suggests, change things up with rotating exhibits.
“Montana is home to countless stories,” said Molly Kruckenberg, director, Montana Historical Society. “We hope visitors of all backgrounds will enjoy their time at the Montana Heritage Center and leave inspired to explore the state, whether that means walking the streets of Butte after seeing our mineshaft or visiting a homestead in Terry. The Heritage Center is just the beginning of the journey.”
As Kruckenberg alludes, Montana Heritage Center is just the start of what could be an entire trip dedicated to all things Montana history. You could also visit Museum of the Rockies, home to a substantial T-Rex collection. If your interest is piqued by Russell Gallery, you could also extend your exploration of his works at C.M. Russell Museum.
