Spirity Of The Buffalo Art Exhibit

The Leavenworth County Historical Society proudly presents the 'Spirit of the Buffalo' outdoor art exhibit, a captivating display designed to boost tourism and celebrate local history. This county-wide exhibit features a collection of metal buffalo sculptures, each measuring 4' x 5' x 28'. These sculptures are hand-crafted and uniquely painted with motifs that represent Historic Leavenworth, the Old West, and the State of Kansas, based on designs submitted by local artists. The exhibit not only enhances the visual appeal of the area but also serves as an educational platform through a digital learning application. This app allows visitors to download narratives on their mobile devices, exploring the rich history and culture of the Kansas Plains Natives and their relationship with the buffalo. Additionally, opportunities for sponsorships and donations are available to support this long-term public art project, benefiting both the Leavenworth County Historical Society and the local art community.
