Nightlife

Make it a point to visit the state-of-the-art Myrna Loy Center for the Performing and Media Arts, 15 N. Ewing St. (tel. 406/443-0287; www.myrnaloycenter.com). Formerly the county jail, the Myrna Loy (named after the silver-screen legend who was one of Helena's most famous residents) is today a multidisciplinary cultural center. Within its castlelike facade are a 55-seat cinema and a 250-seat performance hall, along with a gallery that focuses on regional art. Other playgoing opportunities include productions by Grandstreet Theatre, 325 N. Park Ave. (tel. 406/447-1574; www.grandstreet.net), and the Montana Shakespeare Company (tel. 406/431-1154; www.montanashakespeare.org), which takes to the stage June through August at Tizer Botanic Gardens and Arboretum.

Of the Queen City's watering holes, we like Miller's Crossing, 52 S. Park Ave. (tel. 406/442-3290), for the live music, neighborhood atmosphere, and Blackfoot River Brewing suds on tap, and the popular Brewhouse Pub & Grille, 939 1/2 Getchell St. (tel. 406/457-9390), atop the Lewis & Clark Brewing Company in the Great Northern Town Center area. The taproom at Blackfoot River Brewing Company, 66 S. Park Ave. (tel. 406/449-3005), is another good option, open daily from 2 to 8pm with free tasters and a three-beer limit.
