Artists > Barbara Van Cleve > Pride & Joy ; Mule & Bridle
Mules being trained to ride were blind folded, by the leather band on the bridle. Once the vaqueros mounted he slipped the blind fold up above the mules eyes so it can see. If it wants to buck, it’ll do it then as it won’t buck blindfolded.
Over one hundred volunteers staff the Coors Art Gallery during the Stock Show and special events such as the Red Carpet Reception. Volunteers come from across the front range, drawn by their love for the art show as well as their dedication to raising funds for the National Western Scholarship Trust, to which the Coors Western Art Exhibit & Sale is the largest contributor.
