Overview

Mission

Public art space

What it reported doing in 2024

LAHAR Foundation is a public art space committed to the interconnectedness of art, architecture, and geology. LAHAR is currently developing two complimentary locations in the state of Montana.The primary site is housed in the newly renovated historic Red Lodge Canning Co. in the town of Red Lodge, Montana. The Canning Co. is a historically landmarked building anchoring LAHAR's mission to provide an experimental and educational art space rooted in great American architecture. LAHAR | Red Lodge will present curated art exhibitions of contemporary and historic content for public visitation. In addition, LAHAR | Red Lodge is dedicated to cultivating new art experiences through educational events, panel discussions, and community conversations with artists, curators, scholars, historians, architects, geologists, filmmakers, and public figures. LAHAR | Red Lodge will also house a small cafe and bookstore as additional gathering and social spaces for public engagement.The second site is a satellite space to the historic Canning Co. and located 50 miles from Red Lodge in the town of Absarokee. Situated in the BeartoothAbsaroka Mountain Range, LAHAR | Absarokee is a complimentary experience to the interior art exhibitions of the Cannery. LAHAR | Absarokee offers an open-sky art destination set within a geologically breathtaking, historic canyon. Designed as an immersive natural environment, LAHAR | Absarokee will provide a space for visitors to experience art within a vast geologically formed canyon.Together, these two locations create unique alternating experiences: white walls to open sky, town to canyon, building to earth. LAHAR Foundation is dedicated to creating innovative ways to experience the connection among art, architecture, and geology. LAHAR is an independent endeavor to support creative freedom, artistic mobility and sm(all) working environments.
