Cowboy Close Up

Amon Carter Museum of American Art and Connect2Texas Present

Cowboy Close Up 

Learn about the cowboy lifestyle during the late nineteenth and early twentieth century as depicted through photographs, paintings, and sculpture from the collection of western art in the Amon Carter Museum of American Art. Then, experience the history and lifestyle of the American cowboy as told by an historical interpreter from the galleries of the Institute of Texan Cultures.  Programs are all interactive, with only four sites participating in each time slot.  Time slots with the notation Times Two! in the title will interact with educators at both cultural institutions, while all other time slots will originate from the Amon Carter and include video from the ITC. These programs and the children’s books Cowboy with a Camera and Cowboy Charlie, as well as the postcards, pencils, and posters that each participating classroom will receive are made possible by a generou s grant from the Erwin E. Smith Foundation.
