Life and Legacy: The Art of Jerome Tiger

August 2017 marks the 50th anniversary of the passing of one of Oklahoma’s most celebrated artists—Jerome Tiger. Having only painted for 5 years, Jerome Tiger produced hundreds of works of art and won numerous awards throughout the country. Today, his work is shown in museums across the nation and he is recognized as one of the greatest Native American artists.  To honor this anniversary, the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum will produce an exhibition of his selected works from the Museum’s permanent collection, celebrating the life and legacy of this remarkable painter.
