This documentary series, which started streaming on SHOWTIME today, is the most profound work I’ve seen on the crisis of missing and murdered girls and women in Montana. Thank you to the @mtfreepress for providing me a platform to share this important work https://t.co/RmDVyWqnM1

Did Corby Skinner bring disco to Billings? My cohost on @YPRadioNews was at the epicenter of this time, as was Kirk LeClaire, who grew up in Billings and has just released two contrasting live recordings of bar bands and punk rock powerhouses. https://t.co/wUrNA0WqMr

My writing is on the cover of the @billingsgazette entertainment section today for my reporting on the upcoming exhibits at Helena’s @HolterMuseum featuring transgender, nonbinary and two spirit artists from across Montana. Published first by @mtfreepress https://t.co/wfQyPTHpaI

We had a blast with John Zirkle in the studio. I had no idea how much was going on at this robust but small community arts center in Big Sky, named for Warren Miller. @WMPAC_BigSky @YPRadioNews https://t.co/W0c6gmsk55

A quiet book for a noisy times…YES PLEASE. “We wanted something soft that counteracted a lot of what was going on—and is still going on—in the world,” said poet Charles Finn of this collaborative book of poetry and photography, “On A Benediction of Wind.”https://t.co/DkAezhd3pF

“It’s fun to play in big halls. It’s fun to play in symphonies. But this feels like the most important work that I could be doing right now through the violin.” It’s been an honor to follow and share this story for @mtfreepress https://t.co/1iiftTHXmf

Courtney Blazon’s narrative landscapes are part history, part fantasy, and all heart. Though plenty of professors told her she had to change her style as an illustrator to be an “artist,” she found her true calling was her authentic self all along. https://t.co/I0KVUmpzBM

Michael Hayken’s exhibit at the Yellowstone Art Museum, Painting a Pandemic, is a sharp and haunting look back to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. “It created a space in me as a painter that I didn’t know existed, and it was full to overflowing.” https://t.co/wRFUy3mdEm

Festival founder and executive director Sterling HolyWhiteMountain created the event for fellow Indigenous writers to come together and talk publicly about their work with one another.  “We need to create a space for ourselves to talk freely,” he said. https://t.co/4aBEMgjOv3

This one is worth revisiting. There are plenty of ways to earn good karma, and it's sometimes immediate. @MontanaFolkFest https://t.co/NgLXXNNGjF

It’s astounding how much life Doug Peacock shared with us in under 30 minutes. He was the inspiration for George Washington Hayduke in Ed Abbey’s “Monkey Wrench Gang,” and accompanied Abbey on his last journey into the wild, where he would also bury him https://t.co/8T7jPnBoql.

Our interview with violin explorer @megkarls is up on @YPRadioNews where she shares the most energizing news about her next collaborative video album that includes commissions by several Montana composers https://t.co/8e4IxlGzvF

It's no surprise that @TippetRise is already booked for the season! This treasure in the Beartooth Mountain foothills is host to a new season of music, hiking, biking & guided tours following a challenging two years in pandemic mode. More at @mtfreepress https://t.co/fJWRYHubyj

An exclusive scoop tonight on @YPRadioNews with the marathon runner of the orchestra world Megan Karls. She’s commissioned works by Montana composers Phil Aaberg, Grant Harville, Nick Davies, Charles Nichols, and herself, to be video recorded in Montana's first mission churches. https://t.co/5tWGBU1KTv

Bringing “Apsáalooke Women and Warriors” from the @FieldMuseum to Montana represents a historic moment. The sacred war shields, tobacco bundles and other objects have not been in the same place at one time on Crow land since the late 1800s and early 1900s. https://t.co/RLq13SShMa

Jesse Albrecht is a thoughtful & reserved speaker who channels intense expression through art. He explores the trauma of war in beautifully adorned & haunting ceramic vessels: stories within stories, on display in Billings (YAM) through July https://t.co/xIYrGiAlLO @albrechtartco

I’m back in the saddle as a freelancer for @mtfreepress! It’s an honor to share how this @forfreedoms collaboration—part of 53 billboards across the US examining justice from the lens of artists and collaborators—landed between Monad and Laurel Road https://t.co/B4vQrZrhRp
