Kirks' Grocery reopens on March 5 and we are proud to show new work by Brian Keith Scott and Emily Davidson. We are also debuting our new record store and community refrigerator.From a belief that our community members should have access to nutritious meals, regardless of ability to pay, comes the first Eat. Share. Give. community fridge, adorned by artist Emily Davidson and housed at Kirks’ Grocery.
It’s fitting to place this fridge at Kirks, a performance space, music venue, and art gallery in downtown Billings, as it was the site of one of the community’s first grocers, opened by the Kirk brothers in the early 1900s. The fridge has been lovingly decorated by Emily with deities representing the bounty of harvest, the celebration of feast, and the sacred nature of food.
The fridge is stocked daily and accessible during Kirks’ business hours. Patrons are asked to observe social distancing and wear a mask before entering. Masks and hand sanitizer are also provided.
This is the first in a series of community fridges to be placed throughout downtown, focused on serving ready-made meals and stocked by Eat. Share. Give., the community’s first pay-what-you-can restaurant, opening this summer at 404 N. 30th. For more information on financially supporting this project, donating food, or to volunteer, visit
