New Guitars Exhibition Opens February 12

Posted: Feb 2 2010

 

The Guitar: Art, Artists and Artisans
The guitar is the world’s most popular instrument. From its historical roots in Europe, the instrument became popular throughout the American West, evolving into an icon of cowboy music. Often a stunning visual art form, the guitar is the star of this exhibit. Learn about the making of guitars and see nearly 50 examples—including many that are historically significant or guitars that are truly works of art. Exhibit continues through May 9.
