Great exhibit. Cowboy ... focusing on minority cowboys of yesteryear and in modern times. I learned a lot, met a wonderful local artist Lailani Abeyta (see photo) and really enjoyed my visit.

The current "cowboy" exhibition (running through 2-18-24) breaks the homogenous ideal of the cowboy as a white, American male in lieu of diverse cowboys from many different communities.John Wayne it isn't.Many alternative cowboys it is.
