Help Preserve the Spirit of the American West
Family Fun Friday Photo Contest
Like we said, the Buffalo Bill Historical Center knows how to have fun! On Friday, November 11, we hosted a Family Fun Friday event that was all about art: "Let's pARTy!" One of the activities was the Firearms Photo Contest. We encouraged families to gussy-up in western wear that we provided, include at least one of our safe-to-handle prop firearms, and create a scene to photograph. Here are the finalists, as well as our grand prize winner. The winningly photogenic family receives two guest passes to the Center. Thanks to all who participated!
