Upcoming Events
Come visit us at the Heartwood Center!
The historic Heartwood Center continues to be the perfect home for Mattox Farm Productions. Located at 615 Oak Street, what was originally dedicated as St Joseph Catholic Church in 1907, the space was renovated in 2013 and 14 to be a modern event center that highlighted the architecture of the old Catholic church as well as the original intent of the building, brining community together. The Heartwood Center truly is timeless beauty in the heart of Sandpoint.
In addition to renting the space we also host events like concerts, stand up comedy, and other events designed to bring our community together and make this historic building the heart of the community once again!
If you are interested in renting the Heartwood for a wedding, business conference, family gathering, nonprofit meeting or fundraiser please reach out to us at heartwoodsandpoint@gmail.com. You can also click on the link above to check out the Heartwood website.

Madeline Hawthorne
Eichardt’s Pub in Sandpoint, Idaho
The miles we travel make up the stories we tell.
The soles of your favorite boots or the tread on your prized car’s tires soak up the experiences and wisdom of the road under your feet. Born in New England, based in Bozeman Montana, singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Madeline Hawthorne pens the kind of tunes you listen to on a cross-country trek to start anew or in the dead of night when you just need a reminder that somebody’s listening.
In this respect, her 2024 independent album, Tales From Late Nights & Long Drives, serves as a fitting soundtrack to life’s trip.
“It’s the perfect road trip record,” she affirms. “It was mostly written while I was on tour. If the songs were written at home in Montana, I took inspiration from journal entries and memories of my travels. This is me stepping onto the stage with more miles under my boots. I’m giving into the moment and the melody to tell a story. It’s like eleven different versions of me—a woman I could have been, a woman I perhaps thought I was, and a woman I hope to be someday.”
Show starts at 8, Panhandle time.
Tickets can be purchased at the Pub or online with the link above.
