Call for Art
Lone Peak Film Festival Poster Contest
The Lone Peak Film Festival and Birdhouse Collective are inviting artists to create an original poster for the 2026 festival season.
The Lone Peak Film Festival, happening in Big Sky, MT September 17-20, showcases uplifting and inspiring films that highlight the good in humanity through stories of Montana, Indigenous cultures, conservation, and resilience.
We are looking for artwork that captures the spirit of Montana through storytelling, landscape, culture, and human connection. We want to see work that feels cinematic, evocative, and deeply rooted in the people and places that make this region so memorable. Whether your style leans bold and contemporary or quiet and nostalgic, we want to see your interpretation of the West and the stories that live within it.
This is an opportunity to have your work featured as part of a celebrated Montana festival experience and seen by filmmakers, creatives, locals, and visitors from around the world.
