The Brinton Museum invites the public to participate in its annual Bighorn Rendezvous on Saturday and Sunday, August 24-25.
Sheridan Travel & Tourism and Fighting Bear Antiques present Bighorn Rendezvous IX, a weekend of art, culture and fun.
This year’s exhibition, which has been open to the public since July 13, features new artworks from an impressive line-up of artists.
The festivities at the Brinton Museum will kick off with a quickdraw from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday. Heimbuck said the event is free and open to the public and an excellent opportunity for visitors to interact with the guest artists.
