The A.R. Mitchell Museum of Western Art believes children have the potential to change the future and make the world a better place for all of us. The area in and around Trinidad includes ten public and private schools, and approximately 70% of the students qualify for the free or reduced lunch program. In this time of limited funding, fewer than half of the area schools offer art programming and most children have never been inside a museum. Over the years, the Museum has offered free programs to introduce area children to the wonderful world of art through free tours of the museum, and art classes in painting and pottery. We also partner with the Trinidad Rodeo Queens to display and celebrate their annual competition and all children under the age of ten are allowed to visit the museum free of charge.
