Join us Thursday, June 7th, 6-9PM for our next Whitefish Gallery Nights event featuring post-hillbilly artist, Fred Warf, local outsider artist, Caleb Stolte and local assemblage artist, ME. Art From The Way Outside is a mixture of work that’s recycled & raw, re-purposed & painted, collected & assembled by some locals that believe there’s much more to art than being “pretty”!! Refreshments, music & some far-out art!! For more information call 406-863-ARTS or log onto http://www.whitefishgallerynights.org. Cheers & Happy Summer!!!
