March Late Thursday: Chip Clawson & Richard Swanson Gallery Talk

Join the Missoula Art Museum for Third Thursday featuring live music by Mark Myriad and two vibrant exhibitions by Helena artists Chip Clawson and Richard Swanson. This after-hours evening pairs sculpture, sound, and color for a playful and immersive gallery experience, with artist talks starting at 5:30 pm.

In Feathers, Squiggles, and Wings, Chip Clawson blends natural inspiration with digital technology, transforming scanned clay forms and found objects into boldly colored sculptures using CNC routers and 3D printers. Nearby, Rhythm and Whimsy highlights Richard Swanson’s intimate metal sculptures—visual poems that explore rhythm, balance, and improvisation through color, form, and line
