Event Details
This new documentary celebrates the extraordinary lives and achievements of four Montana women who played important roles in the development of our state: Sarah Bickford, Rose Hum Lee, Susie Walking Bear Yellowtail, and Stevensville’s own Maggie Smith Hathaway. These strong women came from humble beginnings, overcame obstacles and endured tragedy, and went on to achieve feats that helped shape Montana as we know it today. After the film, Senator Diane Sands will lead a follow-up discussion and Q&A session.
Two viewings available, both with Senator Sands as presenter: Tuesday, Dec 6 at 12pm and Thursday, Dec 8 at 6:30pm. Registration required.
Film produced by NXNW (North by Northwest) and the Extreme History Project with support from The Montana History Foundation, Humanities Montana, The Montana Film Office, and the Greater Montana Foundation.
