Hi all -

Just wanted to drop in quickly and mention a film I produced that starts TOMORROW at the Myrna Loy, where I have not been but seems like an absolutely gorgeous theater.

That film is THE SCOUT, written and directed by Paula González-Nasser, and is a slice-of-life sorta tale about a young woman working as TV location scout in New York. Location scouting is a job that Paula did for many years - you can read a bit about her experiences and the reasons why she made the film in The New York Times, on NPR, or YouTube.

This is a very small film without much of a marketing budget to speak of, so I figure this is the best way to let y'all know it's playing if it seems of interest to you and you'd like to check it out!

Plays thrice daily through the weekend, and it's 90 minutes.

A New York Times Critic's Pick! Tribeca Film Festival 2025 selection!

THANKS TO THE MYRNA LOY FOR HAVING US!

Just posting to see if there is any chance anyone knows of any places hiring in Helena for some type of wfh position with a flexible schedule... I have baby #2 coming and I'm hoping to be able to avoid daycare but still need to be able to work. I have support to work in person in the afternoons and occasionally during the day, and I could definitely wfh at night. I'm thinking something to do with data entry or medical coding (I do have some training for coding), but I'm really flexible for just about anything. I know jobs like this are hard to come by but I figured it never hurts to look around!

where can we get some moving boxes?

Lots of new donated books in the LittleFreeLibrary on red letter Street. Thank you to all the folks who have been sharing their books with others through the LittleFreeLibrary.

I’m currently a graphic/web designer in healthcare marketing, but I’m hoping to branch out a bit and expand my portfolio!

I’d love to connect with some local Helena businesses that might need a little help with their branding, graphic design, websites, social media, etc. I’m especially interested in businesses that may be relying on AI-generated designs or just haven’t had the time or resources to invest in professional design work.

My hope is to offer my services at a discounted rate, or even for free, in exchange for being able to use the finished work in my portfolio. I have experience and references, and I’m planning to put together a few packages to make things easier!

Mostly just wanted to put some feelers out there and see if anyone has any recommendations, leads, or knows of a local business that could use a hand. I’d love to work with some more creative industries and support local businesses in the process!

Does anyone know of any CPA’s in Helena that are accepting new clients?

Hi Helena!
I’m hosting a clothing sale this Saturday, October 17, from 11 AM–3 PM!
I’m clearing out a large portion of my wardrobe, with lots of pieces from Anthropologie, Free People, Urban Outfitters, Madewell, and other brands.
There will be a wide selection of dresses, sweaters, tops, jackets, denim, and more, including some fun statement pieces! Many items are in excellent condition or have barely been worn.
Prices will vary by brand and item, with plenty of opportunities to find something special for less than retail.
When: Saturday, October 17, 11 AM–3 PM
Where: Helena’s South Hills neighborhood. DM me for the exact address!
Feel free to reach out with any questions. Hope to see you there!

I am a 46 woman looking to rent a room/basement etc. I have excellent rental references and good credit. Can provide more information about my lifestyle, work,etc if someone has a serious offer.

Great comedian tomorrow at the Helena Avenue Theater!

We are visiting friends and want to bring pizza to their house for lunch. Please provide some suggestions folks!

Hey friends, this is my first winter inhelena and I just wanted to be sure I'm not missing anything. Before this snow came I looked at the city website to see if there were any parking requirements for snow removal but they haven't posted anything yet for this year. I have lived in other places where the city required you to park on alternating sides of the street so the plows could get through and I was wondering if Helena had any requirements like that.

Just remember to slow down today and remember that we all want to see you around again. It's wet out, but that could change in a heartbeat. Have a safe day everyone! :)

That is all. Carry on.

Drop your opinions in the comments, I wanna hear 'em.

The snow is hours away..run far away back to where you came from!

Any recommendations for flying out of Helena or other MT airports to Amsterdam? First overseas flight for wife and I in March? TIA

Looking for an OB who you specifically recommend for over weight pregnancy. Ideally, I would have lost more weight prior to becoming pregnant, but here we are... I'm super excited and would like to find a doctor who is knowledgable and respectful, but is also not going to try and sugar coat things for me. I've already had one baby and I know you can have a healthy overweight pregnancy, but I also understand that it can put you at higher risk for things and dont need to be coddled about it. Thanks for any recommendations!

My name is Luke Muszkiewicz. I currently represent Helena's House District 79 in the Montana Legislature, and I'm running for re-election on November 3rd.

Obviously a lot of this will be folklore and ghost stories - but I am curious, has anyone seen anything peculiar in the woods/forest here?
