Lettie Conrad and The Wild West Tour
The Lettie Conrad tour honors Kalispell’s Founding Mother, Lettie Conrad. The story of Charles Conrad has been well-told by Kalispell locals and visitors since the 1890s. Mr. Conrad’s adventures and accomplishments echo through to this day as we live and work in the town he helped found. But, as the old saying goes, “behind every great man, there’s a woman,” and this special tour tells that story. Learn about an Edwardian woman’s life in Montana while touring through the Mansion’s twenty-six rooms.
The Lettie Conrad Tour is on hiatus for 2025.
The Conrad Mansion is excited to announce our 2025 historical clothing exhibit, From Cradle to Grave: Fashions for life’s passages between 1881 and the 1970s.
Join volunteer curator of textiles, Teresa Knutson, as she guides us through a remarkable garment collection at the Conrad Mansion Museum.
Each year, Teresa Knutson creates a new historic clothing exhibit focusing on nineteenth and twentieth century fashion. During the 2025 exhibit, she will focus on clothing worn to celebrate birth, coming of age, marriage, death.
Knutson not only uses fashion to tell the story of the era, but also the story of the Conrad family, who moved into the Mansion in 1895.
These special fashion tours will be held the last Thursday of every month, from June through September, from 5:30-7:00pm at the Conrad Mansion. There will be an optional Q&A session with light refreshments following the tour.
These tours are family-friendly, but we do not recommend children under 10 attending. All proceeds benefit the Conrad Mansion Museum.
Tickets are $30.00 per person.
