APA Signature Show at the Petrified Wood & Art Gallery

The Petrified Wood & Art Gallery in Ogallala will again host the American Plains Artists (APA) Signature Show this spring.  The show will be on display March 17-April 29 at the gallery located at 418 East 1st Street.  The public is invited to the opening reception on March 17 from noon to 2:00 p.m.  This celebration of “Art of the Plains” features 42 realistic and representational artworks in traditional media,  depicting the American Great Plains region — its landscape, wildlife, people, and way of life in historical or modern times.  APA Signature members are nationally recognized award-winning artists from across the U.S.A. and were elected to that status due in part to the continual high quality of their artwork.  The Awards Juror for this show is Cowboy Artist of America Brandon Bailey.
