In trying to locate in Helena where my husband was going on an appointment yesterday in Helena, MT, we stumbled upon the Holter Museum of Art.
We parked right in front of it and at first I thought it was just a gift shop having noticed a "Sale" sign on the curb. While my husband took off walking to locate his destination. I talked my daughter into exploring with me.
I was able to sneak a few pictures of one of the displays in the museum. I don't know if pictures were allowed as nothing was posted and there was one man feverishly working on already clean floors and another lady in the office at the check out counter for purchasing items. Everything was for sale from pottery, sewn items, jewelry, ornaments, framed pieces, western, oriental, sculptures and so much more. These items pictured were for sale as lots of two or three dolls ranging in price from $600 - $800. Some were sold and marked as such on the walls. The set of porcelain cups (approximately 8 in the set) were marked sold for $1000.
Another beautiful sight to behold was the church from the street outside the museum. The bells also ring on the hour and can be heard for quite a distance. I want to explore this place again and come when my foot is able to walk and walk without pain. I am really feeling like I over did it yesterday.
