E.L. Wiegand Creativity Center

The Helena community has always expressed the need for a flexible community space that offers a safe, inclusive space for groups to come together, make connection, and learn about each other. We took that to heart and created a plan to bring this idea into our community. 

By opening the “W,” we guarantee better access to lifelong arts learning opportunities that ignite creativity and encourage expression through collaboration with local artists, groups, and organizations. Our plan include repurposing the Holter’s Sherman and Milliken Galleries into a creative space that will provide: 

• A healing and peaceful atmosphere 
• Multi-functional spaces for meetings, educational experiences, demonstrations, and performances
• A community gallery
• A community stage

The “W” will work hand-in-hand with the museum side of the Holter – creating hands-on activities and experiences directly relating to current exhibits and art displays.
