Our Collection, Our Story
Since the Museum first opened its doors in 1985, building, preserving, and collecting art has been central to our mission. Our Collection, Our Story celebrates the many individuals and families who have supported the Museum over the years through their generosity and belief in the power of art. Without their vision and commitment, the Museum’s collection would not exist as it does today.
Permanently Located in the Keith Family Gallery

Shifting Subjects: The Heroes of the West

These subjects has created visual lessons on what the West is, was, and how it has changed today.
