'Hand-Raised: Historic Barns of Montana' coming to Havre

Press release

Chere Jiusto and Christine Brown will present “Hand-Raised: Historic Barns of Montana” Thursday, Nov. 3, as part of the Montana State University-Northern Chancellor’s Lecture Series.

The performance will be at the Applied Technology Center, Hensler Auditorium, at 7:30 p.m. The presentation is free and open to the public.

The historic barns of Montana are a threatened part of the state’s heritage. To capture their history and encourage their preservation, Jiusto, Brown and photographer Tom Ferris collaborated on the award-winning book “Hand Raised: Historic Barns of Montana,” released by Montana Historical Society Press in 2011.

The presentation includes an overview of Montana’s barn-building history, stunning photographs of barns from across the state, and the stories attached to some of Montana’s most memorable, photogenic, and historic barns.

For more information, people can call Northern at 265-3700.
