20th Annual Cowgirl Up! at the Desert Caballeros Western Museum

March 28 – May 25 , 2025

Desert Caballeros Western Museum

In 2005, Desert Caballeros Western Museum embraced a revolutionary idea: an annual exhibition showcasing the brightest contemporary female artists working in the Western genre.

More than a show – Cowgirl Up! is a crossroads where artists, collectors, and art enthusiasts come together to explore what it means to be a Western artist. CU! artists display a wide range of traditional and contemporary techniques, styles, and mediums.

Continuing the tradition – Your purchase of original artworks supports the endeavors of women artists working today and of the Desert Caballeros Western Museum. CU! art can be bought throughout the run of the exhibition at the Museum or online.

An exhibition first and a sale second – The Cowgirl Up! exhibition is divided into two parts: a gallery of “miniatures” and a gallery of full-sized art. Artwork in the Main gallery should remain on display throughout the exhibition and will be available for pick-up or delivery after May 25, 2025.

Opening on March 28 and running through May 25, 2025, this exhibition offers a unique perspective on the West, highlighting the often-underrepresented narratives of women in Western art.

The exhibition and sale begins with a private preview on Friday, March 28, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. and a silent auction on Friday, March 28 from 4:30 to 5 PM. The public may view and purchase pieces beginning Sunday, March 30, from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
