Explore the original exhibition, Equally Different: Uncovering the History of Disability, and engage in a behind-the-scenes conversation with Lauren Hunley, community historian and project director.

Lauren will share the process behind curating this impactful exhibit, highlighting Montana’s complex and often untold history of institutionalization, resilience, and the early local efforts that positioned Billings as a national leader in disability integration and advocacy.
