| The National Cowboys of Museum and Hall of Fame is "an idea whose time is long overdue," say those in the museum, scholastic, and business communities. Through artwork, historical records, and current events, this collection offers true perspective on the people and activities that built that unique culture.
The American West.
Actual history is far removed from sterile depiction's in decades of 20th Century movies and television. Original societies were diverse as is the West of today, a variety of highly complex indigenous populations. Then, from the very first exploration recorded by "Europeans," people from Africa, Asia, and
the Americas contributed mightily to the process of history. This is a story of many displaced individuals and groups, all of whom became caught up in the enormous adventure of The American West.
The mission of the National Cowboys of Color Museum and Hall of Fame is to offer the visitor a complete recognition of this historical process. The work of artists who documented the people and events of the time, journals, photographs, and other historical items are part of this new collection of long overlooked materials that tell, perhaps for the first time, the complete story. The American West of today still operates on many of the principles and culture relationships begun so long ago. We hope that our visitors will share
in the enjoyment of a new vision and leave awareness that today's West came into being through the struggles and triumphs of diversity.
