A Road Runs Through It exhibit opens at Missoula Art Museum

Art and advocacy meld at the Missoula Art Musuem (MAM) with an exhibit of the Limited Collector's Edition of A Road Runs Through It, Wildlands CPR's anthology that includes contributors Annie Proulx, Peter Matthiessen, Barry Lopez, William Kittredge and 25 others.

Opening on Saturday, June 26th and running through October 31st, the exhibit features Montana artist Claire Emery's striking wood engravings, inspired by stories from the book, and also includes a look at her metal engraving tools and maple blocks on which she carved the images.

The complete Limited Edition Set includes the six wood engravings in a leather clamshell box and the book in matching leather, signed by all 26 living contributors.

Wildlands CPR and MAM will have an event to celebrate the exhibit this fall, coinciding with the Montana Festival of the Book in late October.
