The Hobby Store is a marketing tool for the inmate hobby produced from MSP, MWP and DOC contracted facilities.

Hobby is one way to encourage inmates to develop constructive use of their leisure time and provide a means by which authorized hobby craft items can be made for gifts or sale.

Many different items are found in the Hobby Store, anything from hitched or braided horsehair belts and key fobs, to items made out of yarn, leather, beaded jewelry, and artwork, just to name a few.

Inmates may contract with MCE and persons from the general public, including businesses, for the sale of a specific hobby craft item.

If you are interested in Hobby items like the ones shown above please send an email to mce@mt.gov.
