National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame

Founded in 1975 in the small panhandle town of Hereford, National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame was later moved to Fort Worth. It offers a distinct perspective on the role of women in the West. Beginning in the settling days and progressing through the modern times, this collection is solely dedicated to the lives of these exemplary women. More than 100 women are currently honored, while new honorees are added each year. Most notable are artist Georgia O'Keefe, singer Patsy Cline, actress Dale Evans Rogers, hatmaker Sheila Kirkpatrick, and barrel racer Martha Josey.
