Cost: Free; Lunches provided
Eligibility: Juniors and seniors in high school and recent high school graduates
Location: Helena College Donaldson Campus (1115 N. Roberts Street, Helena, MT 59601)
In 2021, students produced the movie "No Ordinary Time," about the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic in Montana. This year, students will focus on the Montana State Capitol.
2022 Theme
Less than a decade after achieving statehood, Montana began construction on its Capitol building in 1896, creating a physical representation of the patriotism and civic pride emerging from the ideals of democracy. The design of the building captures Montana's unique story of transformation: how a territory becomes a legitimate state and how diverse interests come together to form a community. Over time, many of these contributions and founding stories, which helped build Montana, have been overlooked. Now, 110 years later, this history will be explored through the lens of high school students.
