INFORMATION

From the inside, circa 1910 concrete vaults of the WaterWorks Galleries give the Custer County Art & Heritage Center the look of a contemporary urban exhibition space.  Located in the southeast corner of Montana, Miles City, with a population of under 10,000 citizens, is anything but urban. 

The Custer County Art & Heritage Center opened in 1977 after 7,000 square feet was renovated for exhibitions and education programs.  Additional renovation is currently taking place  to accommodate growth.

As a cultural leader in southeastern Montana, the Custer County Art & Heritage Center is a nonprofit organization guided by philosophy of public service.  Our mission is to provide, free of charge, high quality, interpretative exhibits in the visual arts and humanities; educational opportunities and informational services for the general public, schools and civic groups; and proper management of and accessibility to exhibited visual artworks, including the Art Center's permanent collection, held in public trust.
