Join us

Join us for a public Juneteenth Celebration at Tinworks Art in collaboration with Cultured Roots, MSU Black Student Union, MSU Student Commons, Bozeman Poetry Collective, and Studio Wheelhouse. Come meet your neighbors, learn about this holiday honoring Black freedom, resilience, and community, and enjoy some art! This event will feature music, food, storytelling, and community resources. Food from Provecho will be available for purchase at the event. A limited number of meal vouchers are available for community members in need, and can be picked up from late May at Cultured Roots, VIP Barber Lounge, and MSU Student Commons (students only). Contact these groups for more information.

Attendees are also encouraged to view our new free art exhibition entitled Chisel & Razor: The Artistic Legacies of Edmonia & Samuel Lewis. This show features newly commissioned work by Edgar Arceneaux as well as Terry Adkins, Sonya Clark, Maud Sulter, and Nate Young in response to the lives of Edmonia Lewis, the first internationally acclaimed Black and Anishinaabe sculptor, and that of her brother, Samuel W. Lewis—an early Bozeman-based citizen, performer, entrepreneur, barber, and community leader who was central to Edmonia’s success. Read more here.
