May is National Historic Preservation Month and the Historic Preservation Advisory Board invites you to partake in its month long celebration!

This year’s theme is The Stories and Heritage of the Valley of Flowers. Did you know that Gallatin Valley is also known as the Valley of Flowers? According to the Blackfeet National legend, the Valley of Flowers, or Aapistsisskitsaahko, was called that because of the variety of wildflowers found both on the mountainsides and in the valley. Amongst the different Native people, this land was not to be fought over but shared by many tribes such as the Apsáalooke (Crow), Tsetsêhesêstâhase & So’taa’eo’o (Northern Cheyenne), Sélish (Salish), Ksanka (Kootenai), Niitsitapi (Blackfeet), Lakota & Dakota (Sioux), Nimíipuu (Nez Perce), Bannock, and Shoshoni tribes. You can read more about this "home to many" here.

We continue to share this land and recognize that the stories and heritage of Bozeman and the greater Gallatin Valley are what make this place special. Throughout the month of May, the Historic Preservation Advisory Board and partners will host events dedicated to Bozeman's stories and heritage and the City's historic preservation program. See key dates on the right to learn more and sign up for them. More details will be added as they get solidified.
