Call for Artist
The Southwest Montana Arts Council and Barrett Hospital and HealthCare invite artists’ proposals to transform a blank wall into a vibrant work of art celebrating movement, exercise, and healthy living.

The budget for this project is $1000 to include all cost of materials and artist compensation.
