The show starts soon and I’m very excited about it! Below is my original post when I received my invitation.  Now the Hold your Horses exhibit and sale at The Phippen Museum is less than two weeks away from the opening reception.  This will be my second year participating in the show and sale.

I received the postcard last week inviting me to attend the opening reception on August 2nd 2019. LOL, of course I will be there!! A fellow artist just said to me yesterday that the Hold your Horses show at The Phippen is her favorite show that they put on!

This year I have contributed three wall art pieces  and one functional horse art piece.

History of The Phippen Museum

“As a museum of Western art, the Phippen Museum has everything you need to know about the Wild West. They have many educational and group tours available upon request. Some of their permanent exhibits include studio replicas, a special collection room, a Western heritage gallery, and a rancher and cowboy hall of fame. All of the Phippen Museum’s exhibits include elaborate paintings, sculptures, and displays. These combined with their temporary exhibits paint a full picture of what life was like in era of “Cowboys and Indians”. ”

 

Smithsonian Magazine says “George Phippen, western painter and sculptor, was also a co-founder and the first President of the Cowboy Artist of America. He Passed away in 1966, but his work ethic and inspirational character encouraged a group of friends and family to pursue the creation of a facility in his honor that would specifically represent artists and artwork of the American West. Today, the art, heritage, history and legends of the American West come alive at the Phippen. Our 17,000 sq. ft. facility now boasts two studio replicas, four galleries, a museum store, multipurpose classroom, research library and four permanent exhibits, including the Western Heritage Gallery and the Solon H. Borglum collection room.”

Mark your calendars and join us for the opening reception on Friday, August 2, 2019.

Not my first time showing at The Phippen Museum

In 2006 The Phippen Museum hosted a show called “Fresh Eyes-Emerging photographic talents of the west”.  I entered a few images into this show and was awarded The Phippen Award for Bringing ’em Home.  The Phippen award was given for the image that most depicted the mission statement of the museum.

Mission Statement: To preserve and exhibit museum quality Western art and educate the public about the unique heritage, history, legends and influence of art of the American West.
