SUMMARY:First Friday with Sara Siestreem at Missoula Art Museum
DESCRIPTION:Stop in at Missoula Art Museum for First Friday on May 1 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm for an unforgettable evening celebrating the opening of Acts of Love\, Refusal\, and Resistance – a powerful new exhibit featuring the work of Sara Siestreem with music by Dylan Running Crane\n\n\n\n\n\nStop in at Missoula Art Museum for First Friday on May 1 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm for an unforgettable evening celebrating the opening of Acts of Love\, Refusal\, and Resistance – a powerful new exhibition featuring the work of Sara Siestreem (Hanis Coos of the Confederated Tribes of Coos\, Lower Umpqua\, and Siuslaw Indians). Sara will be in attendance for an artist talk at 5:30 pm\, with music by Dylan Running Crane. \n\n\n\nMAM first presented Siestreem’s work in 2013\, and in the years since her artistic growth has been remarkable. Drawing on traditional basket weaving practices\, she weaves ancestral pattern motifs into bold geometric abstractions — proud and powerful expressions of Indigenous sovereignty. A recipient of the Hallie Ford Fellowship (2025) and elected 2025 National Academician by the National Academy of Design\, Siestreem is an artist in full stride\, and MAM is honored to welcome her back. \n\n\n\nSpecial thanks to the Elizabeth Leach Gallery for support in mounting this exhibition. \n\n\n\nThank you as well to Elizabeth Leach\, Janet Mohle-Boetani\, and Greg and Cathy Tibbles for the publication support\, as well as The Ford Family Foundation Visual Arts Program for exhibition support.
