State of the Art: Montana

March 2026 Issue Special Feature

Big Sky Country is no stranger to Western art, as readers will discover in our March issue. Our in-depth destination guide State of the Art: Montana comes back in 2025. This year’s issue will support all of Great Fall’s Western Art Week shows that are timed around Charles M. Russell’s birthday in mid-March. Montana was home to Russell and other Western greats, and is home to many great artists and art destinations still today. Celebrate Big Sky Country as Western Art Collector returns with our 18th annual State of the Art: Montana guide dedicated to the famous Western state. Expect coverage on art communities spanning the state like Big Sky, Bozeman, Great Falls, Hamilton, Helena, Kalispell, Missoula and more.

By participating in this in-depth destination guide, you will receive:

• Editorial coverage in our State of the Art: Montana section, including information on your gallery or studio and upcoming exhibitions.

• Direct contact information so collectors can purchase artwork straight from the pages of the magazine or find out more about their favorite artist(s) working in this exciting genre.
