The Arts enliven and enrich our existence!! And that is what we see ourselves helping along, here at the Bonifas Fine Arts Center.  We’re all committed to bring all forms of the arts to all gender and age levels.  We see the arts not as exclusive to any particular group, but inclusive towards everyone. During a year at the center you can find classes for adults and children in pottery, drawing, watercolor, beading, mosaics, stained glass, music appreciation , Tai Chi and so much more. The Missoula Children’s Theater comes for a week and ends with a great performance. The Children’s Music Theater practices for two months and ends with a fabulous performance.  Gallery Exhibits are brought into our Alice Powers Gallery 10 to12 times a year, covering every theme from nature to industrial, from the sacred to the comic, and more. Cabarets bring an evening of music to an appreciative audience four times a year, and those tickets are valuable commodities! We bring classes and art education to many populations that might not have the chance to come to the center:  Senior Centers, Bay Pines Juvenile Detention Center, Hannahville After School programs or the six local parks where we hold the summer Art in the Park programs.  -  and there’s more.  We are always planning new programs to meet the interests and needs of our community. Of course all this comes at a price.  We do spend a fair amount of time trying to figure out how we can continue the programs we have and develop new ones.  Our annual membership campaign helps greatly, and we write grants for anything we can think of. But we do appreciate all the sponsorships and donations we get.  Thank you for supporting us! If you have any questions about what’s going on here, or how you can become a part of it, well, give us a call – anytime!  We’d love to hear from you.
