The IBRC is a vital community space - offering a welcoming and beautiful setting for the community of Butte. The center serves to foster creativity, curiosity, and community. Through on-going community outreach, local creatives and educators teach and inspire our community in a number of media - not to mention build inspiration and ideas to further establish the arts communities’ creative impulse in the Uptown area.
IBRC programs aim to heighten visibility for the art of print, provide professional development and exposure for artists, foster new collaborations and networks of mutual support within the artistic community, and enable thousands of youth and adults to learn about and participate in the art of printmaking, among several other media.
