  • Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art (also known by its acronym, PGSMA) is an art museum located at 1400 First Avenue North in Great Falls, Montana, in the United States. The building was constructed in 1896 to house the city's first high school, Great Falls High School (later known as Great Falls Central High School). The high school moved to new quarters in 1931, at which time the building was renamed Paris Gibson Junior High School. The junior high school vacated the premises in 1975 for a new building. In 1977, Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art was formed, and it took ownership of the building. It is one of six museums in the city. The structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in September 1976. The museum focuses primarily on contemporary art by artists from the region. Much of its collection consists of folk art, abstract art, postmodern art, and functional artwork such as jewelry. In addition to two floors of galleries, the museum also hosts an outdoor sculpture garden. The structure should not be confused with the Roman Catholic parochial school also named Great Falls Central High School. This Catholic school opened in 1950 at 2400 Central Avenue. It closed in 1973, and the public school system purchased the building in 1975. The building housed Paris Gibson Junior High School (later Paris Gibson Middle School) from September 1976 to May 2005. Paris Gibson Education Center, an alternative high school, opened in the building in 2007. This building also houses Paris Gibson Middle School Academy, a program for at-risk students. (en)
  • Художественный музей на площади Пэриса Гибсона (англ. Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art, PGSMA) — это художественный музей, расположенный в Грейт-Фолсе, Монтана, в США. Здание было сооружено в 1896 году для размещения первой в городе старшей школы Грейт-Фолса (позже известной как Центральная старшая школа Грейт-Фолса). Старшая школа переехала в другой район в 1931 году, когда здание было переименовано в Среднюю школу имени Пэриса Гибсона. Средняя школа переехала в другое здание в 1975 году. В 1977 году в этом здании был образован Художественный музей на Площади Пэриса Гибсона. Это один из шести музеев города. Здание было внесено в Национальный реестр исторических мест в сентябре 1976 года. Музей ориентируется в первую очередь на местное современное искусство. Большая часть коллекций состоит из произведений народного творчества, абстракционизма, постмодернизма и декоративно-прикладного искусства (например, ювелирных изделий). Помимо двух этажей галерей, музею принадлежит сад скульптур под открытым небом. (ru)
