Help Us Preserve Missoula’s History — and Power the Future of the Arts 
Today, you have the chance to be part of something lasting.
The Zootown Arts Community Center (ZACC) is working to restore and protect the historic Studebaker Building—and we need your help to get there!
We’re aiming to raise $44,000 to meet our required grant match and unlock funding for a $220,000 historic preservation project, and every gift brings us closer.
ZACC is Missoula’s nonprofit community art center, and we believe everyone deserves access to creative experiences. Since purchasing the Studebaker Building in 2018, we’ve transformed it into a vibrant hub for art, music, and connection—but now, the building needs critical repairs to remain safe and sustainable for years to come.
Years of moisture, aging materials, and Montana’s freeze-thaw cycles have caused serious deterioration to the exterior façade. Without action, this damage will continue to worsen—threatening not only the building itself, but the community space it holds.
This project will restore and stabilize the building by repairing soft brick, reinforcing the parapet, fixing gutters, and preserving the historic character of this iconic downtown landmark.
Your donation fuels this preservation effort—protecting a space that supports artists, educators, performers, and the broader community every single day.
This isn’t just about bricks and mortar—it’s about preserving creativity, connection, and community.
It’s about ensuring that future generations have a place to gather, create, and be inspired.
Your donation today helps:
Restore and stabilize the historic Studebaker Building
Hire skilled Montana workers specializing in preservation
Source local materials and support local businesses
Sustain a year-round home for arts programming and community events
Every gift gets us closer. $25, $50, or $1,000—it all adds up to protect this space and the people it serves.
If you’ve ever been part of a ZACC event, workshop, concert, or camp, you know how powerful creative spaces can be.
Help us preserve that magic for years to come.
Give today and help us protect the Studebaker Building, and everything it makes possible.
