LOUIS STILL SMOKING NATIVE FASHION MURAL Opening reception July 8, 4:30-6:30pm on the Tinworks Art campus (719 N. Ida in Bozeman) Please gather in front of “Building G” on Cottonwood, between N. Wallace and Ida for the mural unveiling. A mural by Louis Still Smoking (Blackfeet) will grace the façade of an old grain storage building on the Tinworks Art campus, the structure we affectionately call “Building G.” It celebrates Native creativity as expressed through fashion, and depicts two figures: the first, Christian Parrish Takes the Gun (known professionally as Supaman), who is a successful Apsáalooke rapper and fancy dancer. The second figure is Acosia Red Elk, a champion jingle dress dancer and yoga teacher from the Umatilla people of Oregon. This event also marks the opening celebration for Tinworks Art's new permanent home on 719 N. Ida, and the beginning of the 2022 summer art season.
