I've come several times over the years and never fail to find something I haven't seen before that leaves me beyond impressed & incredibly grateful that this family owned business takes the time, money and energy to preserve. They also accept donations -- as you can imagine the cost of keeping up with maintenance can be costly. I highly encourage donating, especially since their ticket prices are reasonably inexpensive. 1000/10 experience for all I have gone here with!

Excellent museum - we expected it to be a small place but it's huge, and packed with exhibits and…read moreinfo. It not only has wonderful Native American exhibits but local and Montana displays on almost every aspect of early life and of European settlement. At the end there is a large (kind of) diorama of wildlife which is very well done. The gift shop is excellent. Staff are eager for you to have a good visit. Stretch your legs afterwards on the short nature trail behind the museum. There's a pond and wetlands though when we were there in July the reeds were too tall to see much. The restaurant next door (different ownership, I believe) is a good place for lunch before or afterwards.

The room on logging only goes up to 2002. They forgot 18 years. The volunteers are very nice and will give you their version of history. We learned a little about a future exhibit on Kalispell and the turn of the century. Lots of dead animals so be warmed if this bothers you. Worth a visit for $4.

The Conrad is one of the most stunning residence-turned-museums I've ever been in and that's saying…read moresomething considering I've been to dozens by now because it's my favorite style of museum that isn't an art museum. My partner and I did the self-guided tour and immensely enjoyed ourselves, being able to move and read everything at our own pace. It was so amazing to learn about the local history in this way! To know that over 90% of the artifacts are original?! That's almost unheard of. It really is well preserved. I wish I was local because I'd love to see the house decorated for Xmas or go to an event there! You simply MUST visit the Conrad!

Awesome Museum! We are so, so fortunate to have this is our own backyard- Flathead Valley friends!…read moreIt truly is a gem. Beyond the museum itself, which rotates shows/exhibitions regularly, the Hockaday Museum of Art is at the forefront of the art world in the Glacier Park, western, Montana history and contemporary art scene, here in Montana. They host: Arts in The Park, Plein air Glacier, artists retreats and a variety of youth art classes, to name a few. Along with their extensive list of contemporary artists who show their work at the Museum, they have a very impressive permanent collection. (Check their website or social media for exhibition dates and scheduled events). Better yet, stop-in and meet their welcoming and knowledgeable staff. As a member and a supporter of the museum, I highly encourage everyone, especially those in our small town community, to visit the museum, frequently check in to see what's new and find ways to get involved and support the many, many talented Montana artists!
