Phippen Museum of Western Art

Fodor's Review:

The paintings and bronze sculptures of George Phippen, along with works by other artists of the West, form the permanent collection of this museum, about 5 mi north of downtown. Phippen met with a group of prominent cowboy artists in 1965 to form the Cowboy Artists of America, a group dedicated to preserving the Old West as they saw it. He became the president but died the next year. A memorial foundation set up in his name opened the doors of this museum in 1984.

  • Cost: $5
