Gallatin History Museum Lecture - Soiled Doves, Part II
Montana was the wild frontier with the vigilantes, founding of Fort Ellis, the birth of new towns, stagecoach trails, creation on Yellowstone National Park, Battle of the Little Big Horn, bison and cattle sharing the open range. The United States was changing with the civil war, Lee surrenders to Grant, President Lincoln assassinated, the last spike of the Northern Pacific Railroad was driven and states were being formed. A new decade ushered in for the State of Montana and one constant remained - Madams and their girls.
Dia Johnson will present Bozeman's Soiled Doves (part 2) on May 11th. Bringing back to life a piece of our buried past, Dia will discuss the historic Red Light District and reveal newly discovered gems of the district that now add to life to this rich history. Don't miss this riveting presentation and come early as part one of this story was a packed house.
Join MOR and the Gallatin History Museum with monthly lectures focused on the dynamic and lively history of the Gallatin Valley.
