Donate

When you donate to the National Western Stock Show, you are directly investing in the future of agriculture, rural medicine, and veterinary science. The National Western Scholarship Trust, established in 1983, awards over 120 scholarships annually, with individual amounts ranging from $2,500 to $15,000. These scholarships not only ease the financial burden for students but also inspire them to pursue careers in fields essential to the sustainability of rural communities. To date, the Scholarship Trust has awarded over 1,800 scholarships, with contributions exceeding $10 million, helping foster the next generation of leaders and innovators.

One of the primary fundraising efforts for the Scholarship Trust is the Coors Western Art Exhibit & Sale. As one of the most renowned Western art shows in the country, this event seamlessly blends the worlds of art, agriculture, and education. Established in 1994, the exhibit features a curated selection of works from both established and emerging artists, celebrating Western heritage and culture. Each year, proceeds from art sales, along with ticket and table purchases, directly benefit the Scholarship Trust.

Your donation helps ensure that the National Western Stock Show can continue hosting events like the Coors Western Art Exhibit & Sale, which not only supports students but also enriches the Stock Show experience for thousands of visitors. With a new home planned in the forthcoming Legacy Building, the exhibit will soon offer expanded galleries and a public viewing space for its permanent art collection, further enhancing its impact. Through your generosity, the National Western Stock Show can uphold its mission to support education, preserve Western heritage, and create meaningful opportunities for students and artists alike. Every dollar you give fuels this legacy and helps sustain both the art and agriculture communities for generations to come.
