In The Community: Expanding Your Horizons was fun this year, as it was last year -- a special program demonstrating the career possibilities open for women, even in NW Montana. The audience was school girls from 12 to 16. I'm sorry, but TV, movies, and magazines don't get the job done. We filled almost two dozen classrooms with various workshops given by local doctors and other professionals, guiding their future peers.
At the Hockaday Museum of Art we have Frank Tetrault's sculptures, and Greg Siple's playful photography A.K.A. Bicycle Eclectic. There's an opening this Thursday.
Check out Fall for Glacier -- a fundraiser for several programs that make Glacier National Park even better!
Media Watch: Four hours of Bob Dylan's own music on Montana PBS to honor his 67th birthday -- one great song after another with some of the best studio musicians on the planet: Al Kooper; Mike Bloomfield; Robbie Robertson; Mark Knoffler; Charlie McCoy; Wayne Moss; Joe South; Mick Ronson; Emmylou Harris; Scarlett Rivera and too many others to name. Dylan's written so many good songs that someone could run several four-hour blocks without repeating tunes. In August of 1965, 17 of the Billboard Hot 100 hits were songs by Bob Dylan. I doubt that anybody else will match that in my lifetime. He's had his ups and downs since then, but he's also been more truthful and open about those things in the last few years -- keep buying his books and recordings!
