The Holter is a contemporary art museum in Helena, Montana, and it fills its galleries largely from proposals rather than invitations — a rare open door into a museum programme. Exhibitions run from six weeks to three months, and which gallery a project lands in is decided by the curator and executive director according to the space available. The museum plans one to three years ahead, so a successful proposal is a commitment far in advance rather than a quick show. Proposals are reviewed four times a year and the fee is $20.
