OUR VISION
|
|
|
|
The Heritage Center houses a permanent collection of
Fred Oldfield paintings, sketches and memorabilia.
It serves as an interactive resource of information on the artist, his
life, and his vision of Western life as portrayed in his works.
It provides a permanent historical and cultural experience that is
exciting and instructive.
The Heritage Center's visual/audio exhibits of our Western Heritage will include the life and
times of our pioneers, cowboys, native Americans and settlers who helped define
the 20th Century.
The Heritage Center houses and makes available to the public, recordings of Fred's memories
with his colorful stories. Stories of his adventures riding in covered wagons, living on
the reservation, being a working cowboy, barn storming through Alaska, building
an Indian Village and living his life as an artist.
Fred Oldfield will teach select classes and seminars. He will share his
painting techniques, his zest for life, his knowledge of survival in the art
world and his incomparable gift of living life with a full cup.
The Center will invite students of all ages and economic situations. It will
offer scholarships to students on ability, not on academic achievement. Guest
artists will teach and share the latest techniques and mediums.
The Center forms a lasting partnership with the public to portray
and share a diverse and evolving culture that is quickly vanishing. The Center
can be enjoyed today and will be enjoyed by future generations.
