Six creative Montanans have been recognized with the state’s highest honor for those working in the visual, performing, literary, and traditional arts. The Governor’s Arts Awards, presented in the Governor’s name and administered by the Montana Arts Council, recognize outstanding Montana citizens and organizations whose exemplary achievements in the arts, or on behalf of the arts, benefit all Montanans. This year’s recipients will be honored in a ceremony at the State Capitol in Helena on December 1.
As our worlds begin to open up and people make plans to head back to the office, one of the pandemic lessons we'll carry with us is that the art we surround ourselves with helps us endure.

Happy birthday, Bob
Bob Dylan, among the world’s favorite artists to wonder about, turns 80 on May 24, a milestone that will be celebrated locally with a casual yard party at his childhood duplex (519 N. Third Ave. E., music by Greg Tiburzi), an episode of “Highway 61 Revisited” (at 5 p.m. on KUMD-FM 103.3 ) and a Cowboy Blue Angel concert at Earth Rider Festival Field (5-8 p.m. Superior). These events are part of the nine days of Duluth’s annual Dylan Fest, a mix of virtual and in-person jams, poetry readings and lectures.
