Montana Libations Garden

A refreshing adult beverage can really compliment a meal from one of the food artisans at SLAM. Step into our libations garden and you’ll find something that is sure to hit the spot, no matter your preference of pour. The microbrewery scene in Montana has exploded in the past few years, and SLAM is proud to exclusively serve delicious beers from Montana breweries. If liquor is more your speed, distilleries from around the state will be offering samples of some of their products, and will have a featured cocktail available for purchase at the bar that showcase the inspired cocktails that can be made from their craft alcohols. The libations garden is open to SLAM patrons who are 21+ years of age. Please bring your ID if you plan on partaking.

"Love it! This show is definitely at the top of the list. Easy to set up and very laid back made for a stress free show!"
​-Larry Blackwood

Artist Demonstration Tent

Ever look at a work of art and say, “ I wish I could do that,” or, “How was this made? Its impossible?!” Well, here is your chance to get some answers!  

Limited demonstrations will be offered at each location during our 2021 summer SLAM.  Ongoing live spray painting will be part of the Bogert Park experience all day on August 7th.
