February in Missoula is many things...a time to tell that special somehow how you feel, a time to remind yourself just how special YOU are, but above all, it's a time get out and show Missoula some love! How? Well, we have some truly lovely events coming your way. You could attend a fundraiser (actually fun) in support of things you care about. You could boogie all night long at one of the many concerts happening this month. You could go the extra romantic mile and run the Heart Throb 5K, or fall in love at a ball, gala, string orchestra event or a sweetheart dance. But whatever you do, be sure to catch the 20th annual Big Sky Documentary's Film Festival. This week-long event features premiere film showings at several venues across town—a perfect date night opportunity. So listen to your heart and show Missoula some love this February, at one of the many hand-picked events listed below. And be sure to view the rest of our jam-packed Missoula events calendar here.
