In Conversation: The Republic of Knowledge

, Bozeman

May 20, 2026 7:00 pm

Long before mass media, Americans built their own republic of knowledge through lecture halls, study clubs, and civic organizations. Join Crystal Alegria, Director of the Extreme History Project, and curator and historian Dr. Melissa Ragain for a conversation tracing two chapters of that story in Montana — from the 19th-century Lyceum movement to the Sweet Pea Study Club, whose Black women members helped shape community life in Bozeman through education, organizing, and mutual support. Tinworks Art: In Conversation brings together artists, writers, scientists, and creative thinkers from various fields to discuss the topics of our time. For the third year in a row, through March, April and May, Tinworks will convene thought leaders from the region and beyond in consideration of Tinworks’ 2026 exhibition Chisel & Razor: The Artistic Legacies of Edmonia & Samuel Lewis. This is a ticketed evening events ($12), open to the public, presented by Tinworks at Rialto.

Everyone has a story. Your stories matter. Keith Alessi had a story. He was neither an actor nor a musician, and his journey to the stage was a highly improbable one. But this show is a reflection of the power and purpose our stories can have when we share them with the world in an authentic and honest way. The grassroots sound of the banjo lures you in and brings you back to a simpler time in life, as Keith takes you on the journey of his unique personal story about how music was the catalyst to ultimately saving his life. A heartwarming, true story of transformation, this show is like a homecoming and has captivated audiences internationally. Everyone has a story. What’s yours?
