Native American ledger art exhibit featured in Anderson Ranch Holiday Open House

The Anderson Ranch Arts Center in Snowmass Village is hosting a holiday open house on December 16, 2023, from 1 to 4 p.m., featuring a special exhibit of Native American ledger art. This exhibit, curated by artist and historian Dr. Joe D. Horse Capture, showcases historical ledger drawings from the Plains Indian tribes, which were created on ledger paper during the late 19th century when traditional materials were scarce due to confinement on reservations. The artworks, which depict scenes of daily life, battles, and ceremonies, are on loan from the Denver Art Museum. The open house will also include artist demonstrations, a holiday sale, and refreshments, providing visitors with an opportunity to engage with this significant cultural art form.
