CACE Western Art Show

The Morgan Community College Center for Arts and Community Enrichment (CACE) coordinates and manages the four-day Western Art Show in cooperation with the Brush Rodeo Association July 4 celebration. The event is held at the Mark Arndt Event Center at the Morgan County Fairgrounds in Brush, Colorado.

The Western Art Show opens on July 1 with a V.I.P. social at which participating artists are guests. During the V.I.P. social, attendees vote for the piece of western artwork that will be the centerpiece for the following year's event poster and promotional materials. After the V.I.P. event, the show is free and open to the public on July 2-4, from 1:00-7:00 PM each day. Artists are urged to be in attendance during the show when possible.

2D artwork must be wired and suitable to hang from pegboard hooks. Tables and/or shelving are available for 3D pieces. Art sales are encouraged with 10% of sales retained by CACE and 90% reimbursed to the artist. All artwork must be removed at the end of the show on July 4th or from 9:00 A.M. to noon on July 5. Entry fee is $15.00. Applicants must submit 5 images of their work.
