5th annual Butte arts symposium

Dedicated to uniting Butte’s creatives to survey and support ongoing projects while celebrating the exchange of new ideas, the 5th annual Butte Arts Symposium took place Friday, January 22nd. The event has left us feeling a swell of gratitude towards all those who made it happen— our volunteers, presenters and audience — and we look forward to sharing more with you this upcoming year and beyond.
