Workshops at Tippet Rise (and Beyond)
Tippet Rise offers many workshops and other cultural opportunities at the art center throughout the seasons, including:
• Three Summer Camp Workshops with the Boys & Girls Club of Carbon County in 2016, one led
by internationally renowned sculptor Mark di Suvero. These workshops continued in 2017, and
we look forward to more in 2018.
• Montana Shakespeare in the Parks worked with Red Lodge High School students at Tippet Rise
in the fall of 2016. In the spring of 2017 and 2018, Montana Shakes held workshops with local
Fishtail and Nye Schools at Tippet Rise.
• For adults, a summer nature workshop and a watercolor plein-air workshop took place at the art
center in 2017 and will be offered again in 2018.
• Tippet Rise has hosted group piano lessons for many of the region’s piano students.
• FAM at the YAM: Tippet Rise was featured as the guest “artist” for open-studio night at the
Yellowstone Art Museum, an opportunity for families of all ages and sizes to visit the museum
and make art together.
• Sunday concerts for children and their families featuring musical instrument “petting zoos” and
lively interaction with world-class performers take place throughout the music season.
Art in Montana Women’s Prison
When Cierra Coppock was 14, she sold her iPad to finance her school project: paying her art teacher to teach the work of Van Gogh, whom she loves, and other artists to women in the Montana Women’s Prison in Billings. Several years later, the Tippet Rise Fund of the Sidney E. Frank Foundation continues Cierra’s initiative, and the only criticism the program has received is that it isn’t frequent enough.
