The Yellowstone Art Museum celebrates ground-breaking former Director Donna Forbes (1974 – 1998) with the exhibition of the Forbes Collection, gifted to the museum in late 2022. Presented alongside a selection of works from the broader YAM Permanent Collection, the personal collection of Forbes’ encompasses artists with which she had great friendships. These works formed the basis of the YAM’s Collection throughout Forbes, most influential years.
