Bear Paw Development Corporation is a private non-profit organization created for the purpose of administering programs to help improve regional economic conditions in Hill, Blaine, Liberty, Chouteau and Phillips Counties and the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations.

A couple years ago two arts leaders, one living in the largest city in Kentucky and the other in a small traditionally mining town, had a hunch that good things would happen if they got creative folks from the cities to hang out with creative folks from the country. That was the beginning of the Rural-Urban Exchange. Since starting the Exchange, they’ve brought together people from all three of the state’s distinct regions to share stories and ideas.

A partnership between two Kentucky-based arts organizations brings together folks from the state’s three regions to break down regional borders.
