One-of-a-kind, beautiful glass art objects, custom-made by UMW Glass students, will be hidden at local businesses from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
​
Over 200 Mushrooms made by the students in the University of Montana Western Glass Arts Club, under the instruction of Professor Ruth King, will be hidden in the shops of: Bannack, Dillon, Lima, Dell, Grant, Jackson, Wisdom, Wise River, Dewey, and Glen. Visit these towns’ businesses for a chance to find a your own one-of-a-kind glass art treasure from Memorial Day through Labor Day!
​
This year’s Mushrooms are truly a work of art! Search the county and collect these amazing objects d’art!
​
According to Chamber Executive Director, Rebecca Jones, “These
pieces are so authentic and lovely, you will want to take it home to let
the sunshine through it! Each limited-edition paperweight is stamped with a "W" for The University of Montana Western!
Participants may snap a selfie with their Mushroom in front of the business in which they found it and send to the Chamber to be entered into a drawing to win $100 Chamber Bucks! But the beautiful Mushroom is yours to keep!”

-
The paperweights are cleverly hidden in plain sight, in public areas of local businesses and historical sites. Please do not disturb the areas.
