Western Visions® 2022

September 10, 2022 - October 2, 2022

Top contemporary wildlife artists and collectors from around the world will come together at the Museum for the annual Western Visions Art Show + Sale. The show features a wide selection of art for sale and the money raised from this fundraiser supports the Museum. The week’s events, offered at the Museum’s award-winning facility across from the National Elk Refuge, draw an international crowd to this critically acclaimed gathering. During Fall Arts Festival (and year-round), the Museum is a hub for art lovers, wildlife and outdoor enthusiasts, and more. This year’s sale includes over 170 artists, with nearly 140 in the small format, intent to purchase sale, and 30+ artists in the live auction. The Western Visions exhibition will be on view from September 10 through October 2. The live show + sale will take place on Thursday, September 15.
