MONTANA’S MUSEUM OPEN FREE NOON TO 4 P.M. FOR PRESIDENT’S DAY

                In honor of President’s Day and the Legislature being in session the Montana Historical Society Museum will be open Monday from noon to 4 p.m. with free admission.

                “With schools closing in honor of the holiday and many people getting the day off, we thought this would be a good opportunity for friends and families to visit Montana’s  Museum and the Legislature together,” MHS Director Bruce Whittenberg said.

                Montana’s Museum has two new exhibits – “Hooked: Fishing in Montana” and “Straight Shooting Women” – in addition to its popular Charlie Russell gallery, Montana Homeland, and Niethe3r Empty Nor Unknown exhibits.

                The Museum Store will also be open from noon to 4 p.m.
