Join us at the YAM on Thursday, September 3 at 5 PM for the Opening Reception of JAMES FLORIO: THIRTYSIX VIEWS OF INVERTED PORTAL.

The evening will also feature a screening of the 17-minute documentary “James Florio at Tippet Rise”, an Official Selection of the 2024 BIG SKY Documentary and MINT Film Festivals, followed by a conversation with James Florio.

Organized as a One Artwork Gallery, the exhibition invites visitors to slow down and spend time with Florio’s grid of photographs chronicling Inverted Portal over seven winters. Designed by Ensamble Studio, the 22-foot-tall sculpture stands on the grounds of Tippet Rise Art Center in Fishtail, Montana.

We hope you’ll join us for an evening of photography, film, and conversation!

Thank you for continuing to support the Yellowstone Art Museum with your time and your treasure. Your support has never been more important as the Yellowstone County Commissioners have proposed only $50,000 in funding from a historical $220,000 in annual support. Our heartfelt thanks for your calls, emails and letters sent to the commissioners supporting restored funding for the YAM. The final budget will be voted on September 1, 2026, so continue contacting the commissioners ([email protected]) and donate to the Mid-Year Appeal today.
