About the Work

This year, we are celebrating the Emerson’s 25th anniversary as an organization and the building will be turning 100! To kick off a year of anniversary events, this year’s Celebration will feature a theme relating to the Emerson’s schoolhouse roots. A Night to Remember – Winter Formal is a throwback to formal dances, vintage fashions and historic prominence of the Emerson building and the Gallatin Valley.
