Artist Talk and Performance by Jon Lodge
Thursday, October 16, 2025 // Reception 5 PM; Talk/Performance 5:30 PM
Join us at the Yellowstone Art Museum for an Artist Talk & Performance with Jon Lodge. Come early to check out Jon’s exhibition Carbon Strata located in the Montana Gallery.
Jon Lodge: Carbon Strata is a culmination of a lifetime of artmaking by Billings-based artist, musician, and visionary Jon Lodge (b. 1945), and represents a natural inclination of the artist towards this precipice in his career. Growing up in Red Lodge, Carbon County in the 1950s and 60s, exploring the region’s coal mine shafts as a child, and experimenting with materials like graphite have saturated Lodge’s deep connection with the element Carbon, a building block of life. In return, Carbon Strata seeks to ignite the senses of visitors, seeping beyond the walls of the YAM’s Montana Gallery and throughout the museum campus.
