Land of Many Stories
The People & Histories of Glacier National Park
2010 will mark the centennial of Glacier Park, and the Montana Historical
Society, in collaboration with Glacier National Park-National Park
Service, has mounted a major exhibition illuminating one of Montana's
cultural and natural wonders. The traveling exhibit - paralleling the theme
and content of the major exhibition displayed concurrently at the Montana
Historical Society - is comprised of reproductions of historic photographs,
graphics, and accompanying interpretive text. The exhibit explores the
many ways people have used and enjoyed the area from pre-European contact
to present day, and will illustrate though much has changed over the years
a great deal remains the same for today's visitors. People still enjoy
Glacier's magnificent pristine wilderness following the same routes as
those who have traveled before. This exhibit is produced in partnership
with Glacier National Park and is made possible by the generosity of the
Glacier National Park Fund and Burlington Northern Santa Fe Foundation.
On Track: The Railroad Photographs of Warren McGee
Jointly sponsored by the Northern Pacific Railway Historical Association, the Montana Department of Transportation, and the Montana Historical Society, On Track: The Railroad Photographs of Warren McGee features the stunning photographs taken by Warren McGee over a 60-year period, beginning in the 1930s and continuing through the 1990s. The exhibit celebrates the photograph collection as it chronicles and pays tribute to trains in 20th century Montana and the surrounding region.
