The Montana Memory Project (MMP) is promoting ways for the public to engage with our free, online, archival content. This initiative can be viewed on our new MMP Engagement Activities page which will be updated regularly.
These activities can be done on a phone, tablet, personal computer. Families and groups can even share a device screen to a compatible television screen so the whole room can enjoy.
