Cowgirl Museum

The National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame had its beginning in 1975 in the Texas Panhandle community of Hereford, Texas. Realizing that women of the American West had been largely overlooked for their accomplishments, this visionary group in Hereford, set history straight. The National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame honors and celebrates women, past and present, whose lives exemplify the courage, resilience and independence that helped shape the West, and fosters an appreciation of the ideals and spirit of self-reliance they inspire. The Museum proudly celebrates living and deceased Honorees who represent diverse backgrounds, ethnicities and cultures.

No other organization in the world works to preserve and tell the story of the Cowgirl through artifacts, research, education, and the Cowgirl Hall of Fame. If you would like to learn more about the Cowgirl Museum and support them in their work, click here.
