Exploration of Montana’s one-room schools In the early 1990s there were nearly 200,000 one-room schoolhouses scattered across the rural United States. Today, fewer than 200 remain. Montana boasts more of these intimate education centers than any other state, with approximately 60. Those schools are the subject of the upcoming exhibition “Chasing Time” at Montana State University Billings Northcutt Steele Gallery. The exhibition opens February 16 and remains on view through March 30. In 2013 and 2014, Missoula photographer Chaput de Saintonge and Associate Professor of Photojournalism at University of Montana Keith Graham teamed up to visit and document all of Montana’s remaining one-room schools. “The result of their labors is a moving, revealing photo-essay,” said Leanne Gilbertson, gallery director. Chasing Time,” is comprised of roughly 30 photographs selected from more than 200 images the duo took during their travels. Each of the thoughtfully composed photographs captures candid, poignant details of Montana’s historic schools. “Alone each is a testament to the uniqueness of each individual teaching and learning in these schools,” said Gilbertson. “Together the photographs suggest common, human themes that might unite the dispersed experiences had in the one-room schools serving remote populations across our state and our nation.” Chaput de Saintonge founded Missoula’s Rocky Mountain School of Photography with his wife Jeanne in 1989. He has been teaching photography for over 40 years. This exhibition is sponsored by the Montana Art Gallery Directors Association and supported in part by the Montana Arts Council, the Coal Tax Trust Fund for Cultural and Aesthetic Projects, and the National Endowment for the Arts. While the show opens February 16, the public is invited to attend

free, special exhibition events in late March. At 5 p.m., March 23 there will be a catered reception for the exhibition, followed by a presentation at 6:30 p.m. that evening by Chaput de Saintonge. The hour-long overview of the photo-essay project takes place in LI148, the lecture hall next to the gallery. At 10:30 a.m., March 24, Chaput de Saintonge will also offer a free presentation on recent trends in digital photographic equipment. It takes place in the lecture hall next to the gallery. The presentation is open to the public and no reservations are necessary. The Northcutt Steele Gallery is located on the first floor of the Liberal Arts Building on the University campus and is open Monday–Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and by appointment. The gallery is supported in part by student fees governed by the Associated Students of MSUB. For more information about this exhibition and related activities, visit the gallery on Facebook.

PROF

Prof, the newest signee to Rhymesayers Entertainment, is already a legend on the south side of Minneapolis. With three self-released albums, plus three additional mixtapes of exclusive material already under his belt, it should come as no surprise he’s been tirelessly making music for over a decade. While he’s continued to develop over that time, both musically and artistically, he’s also fine-tuned his live show to such a spectacle that he’s

undeniably made a lasting impression on the scene. As an entertainer, Prof shows incredible diversity. Whether artistically, or characteristically, he purposefully maneuvers between the parallels of inconceivable experiences and extraordinary fantasies. From the factual to the fictitious, there’s seemingly no end to the number of unique narratives or deliveries at his disposal. Once considered the underdog, Prof has fought his way to the forefront of the scene and amassed a ravenous following along the way.

You could say we were one of the lucky ones, starting this band in April of ’98 without a clue as to what we were doing. We were getting tired of the steady punk rock and metal diet and we wanted to try our hand at country songs, or do our best Tom Waits/ Pogues impersonation.

41st year of the Montana Agri-Trade Exposition populates Billings with the latest in farming and ranching equipment and services Billings, MT - February 16-18, 2017 will be the 41st year of the Montana Agri-Trade Exposition (MATE), the largest Agriculture Trade Show in the region. The three-day event has consistently recorded attendance of over 14,000 people. Over 500 booths display trusted equipment and the latest technology for farming and ranching. Doors open at 10 a.m. every day, closing at 6 p.m. Thursday and Friday and 5 p.m. Saturday. Free tickets are available at First Interstate Banks, the NILE office or at any of the vendor's locations. Without a ticket admission costs $7. For the chance to win one of the three grand prizes the back of tickets need to be filled out and then placed in the drawing drums. This year's grand prizes are a zero-turn lawn mower from John Deere, hearing aid set from the Hearing Aid Institute, and one ton of SweetPro tubs from Agri-Best Feeds. MetraPark hosts the MATE, filling the approximate 125,000 square feet of the Montana Pavilion and Expo Center with booths. Booths with products or services related to the home and or health can be found in the Montana Pavilion. Ag products and services fill the Expo Center, as well as outside-weather permitting. Various food vendors are scattered throughout the show. Bulls are on display under the awning of the Expo Center for the MATE Bull Pen Preview. Cattle producers bring in bulls to sell and to promote their upcoming bull sales. More pens than ever before were sold this year, making the Bull Pen Preview a great opportunity to see some high quality livestock. Educational opportunities at the MATE come informally and formally. Attendees can learn lots from vendors as they browse the booths, or they can take notes during formal

presentations in the MATE Theater. Eight different classes are scheduled over the course of Thursday and Friday. Since 1976 the MATE has been held the third week of February. The MATE is owned by the Northern International Livestock Exposition (NILE), a 501(c)5 non-profit, established in 1967 that is dedicated to the promotion of livestock, agriculture education, and respect of the western tradition. For additional information go to the www.themateshow. com or contact Traci (406) 651-0440 traci@themateshow. com

2017 MATE Show grand prize, John Deere Z525E Zero Turn mower For many, lawn care can be a chore. Another line item on the list of “have-to-do’s” cutting into precious time reserved for the list of “want to do’s.” But for one lucky MATE Show attendee, that is all about to change. Thanks to Yellowstone County Implement and its sister stores owned by C&B Operations, this year’s grand prize sponsorship is designed to shorten time spent mowing and maybe even make it a little more fun. The John Deere Z525E Zero Turn mower offers a 22HP V-twin engine, Tuf Torq TZT&-D dual Hydro Drive train that allows for speeds ranging from 0-8.5 miles per hour forward and 0-4 miles per hour in reverse. A typical riding mower travels between 3-4 miles per hour. Not only does the mower reduce mowing time with its increased speed but also with its ability to spin 180 degrees, essentially reducing the number of passes required to mow a residential yard. Other features include the adjustable twin lever drive control that replaces the traditional steering wheel and features easy to operate functionality for responsive direction and speed control. The larger 22x9.50-10 drive tires offer a smooth ride while

providing increased traction. The 525E also features a hand adjusted deck height adjustable in ¼” increments, to ensure a precise cut height and the 15” adjustable seat with arm rests provides a comfortable operators platform. The 525E is standard with the 48” side discharge deck. “The industry is transitioning to Zero Turn mowers from tractor style mowers due to the speed and maneuverability,” said Yellowstone County Implement Manager, Tim Schulz. “John Deere has expanded their lineup of residual zero turn mowers for 2017 to offer a unit that will fit most anyone’s budget or needs depending on the size of lawn or property being cared for.” He went on to say, “Like the commercial says ‘it’s not how fast you mow, it’s how well you mow fast’!” Tim will have a variety of equipment at Yellowstone Valley Implement booth 47 inside the Expo Center to suit the yardkeepers, recreationists, and ag producers. To learn more about C & B Operations and Yellowstone Valley Implement, vist www. deerequipment.com. For more on the MATE Show, go to www. themateshow.com.

The Irish Rovers Final World Tour Makes a Stop at Alberta Bair Theater on Friday, February 17 BILLINGS, MT —About 600 tickets remain for The Irish Rover’s performance, part of their final world tour, at Alberta Bair Theater on Friday, February 17 at 7:30 p.m. Fans can expect their early hits (“Black Velvet Band,” “The Unicorn,” “ Whisky on a Sunday,” and “Wasn't That A Party”), rollicking Jigs and Reels, plus hilarious stories from their years on the road. The Celtic super-band comprised of Irish emigrants was founded in Canada but first became known on American television in the 1960s. As guests on shows like The Tonight Show, The Smothers Brothers Show, Mike Douglas Show, The Virginian, The Dating Game (founder George Millar actually won the date), they gained experience before hosting their first of three international television series, The Irish Rovers Show, for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Over the next 20 years they became staples of the world music scene with two more international TV series and performing at five World Expos. More recently they’ve produced the television specials The Irish Rovers Home in Ireland and The Irish Rovers Christmas, plus they’ve gone viral with Drunken Sailor. The days of long tours are coming to an end for these Irish lads as they complete one last world tour. After this tour, they will rove again only for special events, festivals and longer stays. This performance is sponsored by Pug Mahon’s. Tickets, $34 and $18 for students with valid I.D., are available at the Alberta Bair Theater Box Office on the corner of 3rd Ave N and N Broadway, by phone at 406-256-6052 (box office hours are Monday through Saturday, 12:00 Noon until 5:00 p.m. ) and/or online at www.albertabairtheater.org.

Wine and beer are included in the price. Tickets are available for purchase through NOVA at 406.591.9535, online at www. NOVAbillings.org, or at our box office located at 2317 Montana Ave. About NOVA Center for the Performing Arts: NOVA Center for the Performing Arts offers drama, musical theater, improv comedy, opera, and a youth conservatory. With other organizations renting NOVA for performances (NOVA partners frequently with Sacrifice Cliff Theater Company) or meeting space, the building is in use almost every day of the year providing the Billings community a local space for performance arts.

About The Alex Nauman: Raised in Wyoming's Bighorn Basin, Alex began studying guitar with legendary guitarist Jeff Troxel at a very early age. After graduating from Riverside High School in Basin, he attended Northwest College in Powell, WY where he continued studying guitar and shared the stage with such luminaries as Ronnie Bedford, Chris Vadala, Darren Kramer, the Horn Heads (see Prince), and many others. A grueling three-year stint in the University of Northern Colorado Jazz Studies program yielded Alex his first Bachelor's degree and gave him the chance to perfect his craft. During his stay in Colorado, he won numerous soloist awards at the UNC/Greeley Jazz Festival and was awarded the Walt Francis Jazz Award for outstanding graduating senior. In 2014 Alex joined the staff of Rocky Mountain College as professor of guitar. Alex currently teaches guitar, bass, and banjo at Allied Music in Billings, MT as well as maintaining an active performance schedule throughout the West.

NEA Big Read highlight of upcoming MSUB Library Lecture Series Billings to read and celebrate “The Heart is a Lonely Hunter,” by Carson McCuller during month long event featuring music, films and lecture

MSU BILLINGS NEWS SERVICES — In partnership with the Montana State University Billings Library, The Writer’s Voice will introduce a new generation of Montanans to the writing of Carson McCullers through a dynamic collaboration among the university faculty and students, Billings Public Library, and area high schools. The program is also supported by Humanities Montana. The Writer’s Voice, received an $11,900 grant to host the NEA Big Read in Billings this spring. A program of the National Endowment for the Arts, the NEA Big Read broadens our understanding of our world, our communities, and ourselves through the joy of sharing a good book. The Writer’s Voice is one of only 77 nonprofit organizations to receive a NEA Big Read grant. The NEA Big Read in Billings will focus on Carson McCullers’s book “The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter.” It is hard to believe that “The Heart is Lonely Hunter,” was the first book of a twenty-three-year-old author, said MSUB Library Interim Director Megan Thomas. “This tragic, small-town drama is so ambitious in its scope-presenting five radically different characters whose troubled lives intersect in the Depression-era South. It always seems like the work of a master storyteller,” said Thomas The public is invited to pick up a free copy of the book at the MSUB Library and sign up for a discussion group, sessions begin March 1. Thomas indicated that the NEA Big Read events will be one of two lecture series sponsored by the MSUB Library. The second lecture series will begin in late March and feature four events around Democracy. “The library’s participation with Big Read was made possible by The Writer’s Voice and the grant it received and we are excited to take part,” Thomas said. Managed by Arts Midwest, the NEA Big Read offers grants to support innovative community reading programs designed around a single book. The program supports organizations across the country in developing community-wide reading programs which encourage reading and participation by diverse audiences. The Writer’s Voice has been a literary presenter since 1991 and has spent 25 years developing and expanding literary programs for youth and adults. Formerly a program of the Billings Family YMCA, The Writer’s Voice now operates as an independent project of the Billings Cultural Partners. For more information about The Writer’s Voice contact Corby Skinner at 294-2390 or Corby@ skinnerbenoit.com. SCHEDULE OF EVENTS:

The Greater Billings Area

Shaped by the Yellowstone River and sheltered by the Rims, Billings is a regional hub for commerce. Whether you’re looking for bronco busting rodeo action or the relaxation of fishing or hunting, you’ll be in good company around Billings. Watch Montana’s wildlife by grabbing your binoculars and heading to the plains or hiking in the mountains that surround Billings. Use Billings as a central point to the best western attractions, events, hospitality, shopping and cuisine. Folks have found Billings a comfy haven for at least 2,000 years—just study the paintings at Pictograph Cave State Park. The wildlife drawn on the cave’s rock walls still roam this area— catch real-life glimpses along the Rimrock Trail or on a Yellowstone River float. Then fast forward to more recent history at the Moss Mansion, Pompeys Pillar National Monument or Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, less than an hour’s drive off I-94. When it comes to dining, Billings spans classic cattletown flare, authentic world taste, and even modern eating scattered all over. Where ever you go, you will find something tasty. For the microbrew fans, Billings features Montana’s only walkable brewpub crawl—six craft breweries all within walking distance in Downtown Billings. Start your tour at Angry Hanks. Billings also sports one of the states largest art galleries Yellowstone Art Museum. It houses many works from local and world artists. Courtesy of VisitMt.com

22 – Welcome! Visitor’s Guide

Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument

Courtesy of www.visitmt.com Located in southeastern Montana, Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument memorializes the site of the Battle of the Little Bighorn which took place on June 25-26, 1876 between the United States Seventh Cavalry Regiment led by Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer, and the Sioux and Cheyenne under the political and spiritual leadership of Sitting Bull. The Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument was originally named Custer Battlefield National Monument. President George H.W. Bush renamed the site on December 10, 1991. It is now representative of those who were in the battle, Native Americans and the 7th Cavalry. A visitor center and museum contains exhibits relating to the 1876 Battle of Little Bighorn in which a total of 263 US Cavalrymen, of the regiments 650 men, were

killed in action by Sioux and Northern Cheyenne warriors. Lieutenant Colonel G.A. Custer was killed leading a contingent of 209 men. The Museum features exhibits of the history of the battle, Custer, weapons, archaeology, Plains Indian life, and a walking tour with interpretive markers. It is wheelchair accessible. Adjoining the visitor center is Custer National Cemetery, which includes interments from abandoned frontier military posts, the world wars, Korea and Vietnam. A 4.5 mile self-guiding tour road connects two separate battlefields, the Custer Battlefield and the RenoBenteen Battlefield. Handicapped parking is located at these two locations and at the visitor center. Ranger programs are scheduled throughout the summer, and bus tours of the battlefield operate from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day. During the off-season a

17-minute documentary film is shown at the visitor center. Additional information can be found at the the Friends of the Little

Bighorn Battlefield’s website, www. friendslittlebighorn.com.

Hidden western treasures at the Yellowstone County Museum A hidden treasure western history enthusiasts will delight in discovering, the Yellowstone County Museum has exhibits dedicated to ranch life, homesteading, antique firearms, and one of the largest collections of American Indian artifacts in the region. Charting the New Frontier New as of 2014 is “Charting The New Frontier: An Exhibit of Mapping and Surveying the Yellowstone Valley.” In this exhibit history buffs will find a timeline of maps that date from 1778 to 1927 detailing railroad development, mining, fur trade, settlement and exploration. The maps are printed in a high quality, fine art form by Kim Lugthart of Artful History Reproductions in Missoula, MT. The original maps are on loan from William Cole of Cole Law Firm in Billings. Visitors will also find antique surveying equipment with descriptions on loan from Selby’s in Billings. Cattle Drives of Yesteryear A J.K. Ralston original painting, spanning the breadth of the room, is displayed above the Yellowstone County Museum’s (YCM) authentic chuckwagon exhibit. It is a trueto-life depiction of the valley’s first settlers and the gear they brought west. Short-horned beef cattle were trailed into the Yellowstone

River valley from Idaho and Oregon by Charles Yegen in 1879. Beef cattle production became a linchpin industry in Montana Territory once rail service to Billings opened access to eastern markets. The pilot wagon had to be driven by a seasoned guide, often old trappers, explorers, and men who had been in country and knew the trails. Behind the guide came the chuckwagon, driven by the cook. The cook worked out of a converted freight wagon built to house supplies and kitchen tools. Behind the chuckwagon was the bed wagon, piled high with quilts and treated canvas, the forerunners of today’s camping gear. Then came the bawling, tail-twitching mass driven by outriders. A cattle drive could cover about 5 miles per day. Native American Collection Yellowstone County Museum is the kind of museum that tells the stories of the people and places, tools, art, and triumphs and heartache of the early residents, both Native American and settlers, who populated the Yellowstone Valley. The displays are considered some of best of its kind in the state. The museum enjoys expansive space around the building. The patio affords a spectacular view of the Yellowstone Valley. The museum gift shop is full

of Native American reproductions and books of Yellowstone Valley topics. The Yellowstone County Museum is located in the historic McCormick log cabin at 1950 Terminal Circle. Follow the

roundabout through the airport and loop around. Hours are 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Learn more at ycmhistory.org or call 406-256`6811. Free admission.
