Trappings of the American West is an award-winning sales exhibition of fine and functional art of the contemporary cowboy. The work of 80 juried artists from 14 Western states and Hawaii will be on display at the Museum of Northern Arizona. Fine art such as paintings, photography, and bronze sculpture, is combined with functional gear: saddles, braided rawhide and hitched horsehair, bits and spurs, boots, hats, knives, and even musical instruments. The exhibition opens to the public September 28 and continues through December 7, 2014. A schedule of public programs included with the exhibition, will be posted July 15th at www.drycreekarts.com.
