Bison exhibit coming to Chisholm Trail Heritage Center
DUNCAN, Okla. – A nationally touring exhibit “Bison: Ancient. Massive. Wild.” will open May 24, at the Chisholm Trail Heritage Center in Duncan, OK. This exhibit explores the significance of the bison from pre-history, to their relationship with the Plains Indians, near extinction, and current iconic status.
As you visit this exhibit, you’ll explore the significance of bison in the cultures of Plains Indian peoples – particularly as a resource for food, clothing, shelter and tools. Bison is a North American species whose story stretches from Plains Indian hunters to entrepreneurial industrialists to dedicated conservationists to today’s producers and enthusiasts.
You’ll also learn the difference between the species of buffalo and bison. Explore how the name “buffalo” became common, which involves quite a few theories. The American bison has been called a “buffalo” for more than 200 years.
Several pieces of historic bison art will also be on display in CTHC’s Garis Gallery of the American West. Head on down the road this summer to see Bison: Ancient. Massive. Wild., the exhibit, May 24 to July 27, 2019. Also on exhibit this summer, Oklahoma artist Sandy Magrath: Dogs of the Southwest paintings, May 1 – June 30; and Texas artist Larry Lemons, July 4-Sept. 22.
Chisholm Trail Heritage Center is open 7 days a week, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday-Saturday; 1-5 p.m. Sunday.

Japanese Artwork Exhibition
The Japanese prints are part of the Leslie Powell Foundation’s permanent collection upon Mr. Powell’s death in 1979. All of the prints in the collection are woodblock prints, or reproductions of such prints. Almost all prints belong to the field of ukiyo-e, literally pictures of the floating or fleeting world. Most of the prints date from the early 20th century of Japan’s Meiji period (1868-1912) or Taisho period (1912-1926) or early Showa period (1926-1989). While many of the prints of this collection are displayed at the gallery consistently throughout the year, others are not readily available for viewing, so they will be made available to view by the public for this exhibition.
In 1966, children in Lawton participated in an artwork exchange with children in Japan. The artwork by the Japanese children was displayed in an exhibition at the McMahon auditorium in conjunction with the Camp Fire Girls Festival of Arts and Crafts that year. Since that time, the artwork has been held privately, going through several hands of ownership and used as examples for teaching by several professors at Cameron University. The Leslie Powell Foundation Gallery is now the caretakers of this artwork and will be showcasing these pieces during this exhibition. The paintings in this collection were created by children from ages 6 to 15.
The Japanese exhibition will be on display Monday, 28 September through Friday, 30 October. The gallery will be hosting a closing reception on Saturday, 24 October, 4:00 to 6:00 PM. Due to abundance of caution in relation to COVID-19, the reception will be a walk through type event where guests are invited to come in a take their time viewing the art. However, there will not be any food or drinks provided. If necessary, the number of guests may be limited to a certain number inside the gallery, if there are state or local restrictions on gathering sizes. Additionally, guests will be required to correctly wear a mask while inside the gallery.
The Leslie Powell Foundation Gallery is a non-profit organization whose mission is to celebrate and promote the arts in the Lawton community as well as Southwestern Oklahoma. The gallery hosts six art exhibitions per year in addition to lectures and musical performances.
