THE OLD WEST MUSEUM is inside the Livery Stables building and features a 30-min self-guided tour of the history of all things horses, starting with the incredible role horses played in warfare in medieval battle and the civl war, moving into outlaws, bandits and the lawmen that tamed the west. Exhibits cover the role that people of color played in equine history, including Native Americans, Mexican Vacqueros and African American cowboys like the Buffalo Soldiers and “Bulldogger” Bill Pickett, who was a rodeo performer. We move through time into the Hollywood glam era and movie stars like Elvis Presley, Dolly Parton and John Wayne and the movie lots in Arizona who produced hundreds of old westerns we know and love. Lastly, don’t miss the exhibit on Annie Oakley and the cowgirls of the west, and how they shaped the trajectory of rodeo and the western arts. From soldiers to horse shows, rope tricks to gun fights, there’s so much interesting history to learn.

It features a first-floor dining are with round wooden tables and chairs and tavern tables with bench seating for 125 people, as well as a balcony and bar area.
