TOP WESTERN ARTISTS SHARE THE STORIES OF THE AMERICAN WEST
Presented by The Western Art Society
Masterpieces in Quest for the West® capture moments in time that range from the early days of settlers in the rugged West to contemporary expressions of our lives today. Now in its 15th year, Quest is one of the top Western art shows in the country. Opening weekend registrants will be the first to see and bid on paintings and sculptures by some of the most prominent artists in a “luck of the draw” sale and a miniature art sale.
Co-chairs Cathy Turner and Patty Gibbs are proud to lead the planning and organization of the 2020 Quest for the West® and hope that you will join the opening weekend virtual sale celebrating the work of many talented Western artists.
