What To Expect

C.M. Russell Museum

Born in 1864 in St. Louis, Charles M. Russell grew up fascinated by tales of the Wild West. He traveled to Montana in 1880 and made a life on the frontier, working first as a cowboy and then a night wrangler, leaving his days free to observe and sketch working cowboys. Once a full-time artist, Russell moved with his wife the short distance from Cascade to Great Falls, where he built his home and studio. Over the course of his life he created around 4,000 works of art that reside in both public and private collections throughout the country. Although primarily focused on the works of the local artist, the C.M. Russell Museum also includes numerous collections of other western artists whose works complemented the themes that so intrigued Russell throughout his lifetime as well as the original Russell Home and Studio.

Nice collection of Russell art plus special exhibits by other artists. During our time there, a Warhol and Schenk exhibit were on dispkay. Russell's home and studio are also there to tour.

Made reservation with current date but didn't notice when finalizing the purchase the date was changed to the next day. No problem as it said you could cancel 24 hours before ticket. As museum didn't open until 10:00 and it was 9:00 the day before I figured it was all good. When I said to cancel it showed $0.00 refund available. Will never use again.

To be able to see his home and studio where he worked. It gave us an intimate view of the artist you can't find anywhere else I took my Kindergartener who is 1/2 Blackfeet so she could get a perspective of art from an artist who lived the times. She took so many pictures with her camera and asked really good questions. I was impressed with the artwork on display and also the Indigenous peoples artifacts on display. We learned he was not just a wonderful artist, but he also took many other artists under his wing. It was an amazing afternoon.
