Take Home a Piece of
Montana Culture
Billings is as much a hub for creativity as it is for outdoor adventure, and that spirit shines through in its vibrant arts and shopping scene. Visitors can explore galleries, boutiques and specialty stores where Montana artists and makers share their craft.
Fine Art & Galleries
Downtown Billings is rich with art destinations that showcase both regional and nationally recognized talent. The Toucan Gallery offers an eclectic mix of paintings, pottery, glass, and jewelry, while the Yellowstone Art Museum Store gives you the chance to take home works inspired by the exhibits inside. Sandstone Gallery, a cooperative run by local artists, is another must-visit, featuring an ever-changing mix of mediums from sculpture to photography.
For those seeking bold and distinctive work, Harry Koyama Fine Art showcases the celebrated Montana-born artist’s pieces. Places like Montana Gallery and even community favorites such as Barjon’s Books round out the picture, offering smaller works, crafts, and cultural art with a personal touch.
Crafts & Handmade Goods
Billings also has a thriving community of makers whose creativity is on full display in local shops and markets. At Joy of Living, you’ll find handcrafted home décor, gifts, and Montana-made products that bring a personal touch to your shopping experience. Seasonal markets like the Yellowstone Valley Farmers Market often feature artisans selling handmade soaps, textiles, and crafts, giving visitors an authentic taste of the city’s creative culture. Antique hunters can browse through Marketplace 3301 where vintage crafts and one-of-a-kind finds fill the aisles.
Jewelry & Wearable Art
For those looking to bring home something personal and timeless, Billings’ jewelry scene offers both traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design. Terakedis Fine Art & Jewelry blends fine art with artisan jewelry, much of it inspired by the Western landscape. Traditional jewelers such as Yellowstone Jewelers, Goldsmith Gallery Jewelers and Montague’s Jewelers are trusted for timeless pieces, including Montana’s prized Yogo sapphires. Many local galleries, including Toucan and Sandstone, also carry handcrafted jewelry made from silver, turquoise, and other natural materials that reflect Montana’s rugged beauty.
