Glacier Art Museum’s collection captures the nostalgia and grandeur of Glacier National Park, the glory days of the Empire Builder Railroad, the Blackfeet Nation, and those who chose to settle in this majestic part of Montana. The collection of over 2500 artworks features works by significant authors, photographers, and painters as well as Glacier Park collectibles such as vintage maps and hand-tinted photographs.

Glacier Art Museum continues to build its permanent collection in achieving its mission to preserve the artistic legacy of Montana and Glacier National Park. Currently, in addition to acquiring works by living Montana artists from our exhibition history, we are actively looking to expand our Glacier Art Collection with additional works by historic GNP, Montana, and indigenous artists such as: Rudy Audio, John Fery,  Terrance Guardipee, Winold Reiss, Charles Russell, O.C. Seltzer, Frances Senska, Frederick Remington, John Clarke, Kathryn Leighton, Jaune Quick To See Smith, David Shaner, and others. If you are interested in a legacy gift to the museum by donating a work of art, please contact acordova@glacierartmuseum.org or call 406-755-5268 x 225.
