We invite artists to submit their work for Sagebrush & Lariats: The Western Spirit, a gallery show celebrating the untamed beauty and rugged essence of the American West. This exhibition seeks to capture the spirit of wide-open landscapes, resilient communities, and the enduring legacy of cowboys, ranchers, and pioneers. From the rolling plains to desert vistas, and the tales woven by those who lived in these remote expanses, we encourage works that evoke the freedom, hardship, and adventure of the Western frontier.
Submissions in all mediums are welcome. Join us in exploring the timeless allure of the West, where history, myth, and nature collide.
