The challenges facing local news organizations are very real. That's why reader support matters more than ever. If you believe independent journalism matters, make a contribution today and help us reach our summer fundraising goal of $15,000 by August 9.
We say “gay cowboys,” and automatically you think Brokeback Mountain. We can’t fault you, as Ang Lee’s film adaptation of Annie Proulx’s short story is an obvious cultural touchstone. But if Burton Barr Central Library’s latest exhibit, “Out West,” is any indication, then there’s much more to learn about the LGBT community’s impact on western America.
The exhibit is a collection of ephemera, including belt buckles, posters, and programs from the Arizona Gay Rodeo Association. On view through Sunday, March 31, it’s supplemented by programming including a lecture and film screening.
Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.; Sundays, 1-5 p.m.; Tuesdays-Thursdays, 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Starts: March 2. Continues through March 31, 2013
