🚨 NEW EXHIBITION 🚨

We will be having the Vaquero: Genesis of Texas Cowboy Exhibit from September 12th - October 8th which is just in time for Hispanic Heritage month! 

The exhibit features photographs with bilingual narrative text that reveal the muscle, sweat, and drama that went into roping a calf in thick brush or breaking a wild horse in the saddle.

In the early 1970s, Bill Wittliff visited a ranch in northern Mexico where the vaqueros still worked cattle in traditional ways. Wittliff photographed the vaqueros as they went about daily chores that had changed little since the first Mexican cowherders learned to work cattle from a horse's back. Wittliff captured a way of life that now exists only in memory and in the photographs included in this exhibition.
