The American Saddlebred Museum’s 2016 exhibit will open to the public on April 1, 2016. Titled "Trainers’ Treasures: Gifts From Saddlebred Professionals," the exhibit will run through December 31, 2016.
"Trainers’ Treasures" will consist of items that have been donated to the museum over the past 50 years by professional horsemen and women from within the Saddlebred industry. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and tack collected by, or used by, famous Saddlebred trainers and their horses will be included. Some of the items were created by donors, some were used by donors and some were collected by donors. This will be a diverse exhibit, filled with items of importance to the industry and to the professionals who donated them.
The American Saddlebred Museum and Gift Shop, aka "The Showplace for Saddlebreds," is located on the grounds of the Kentucky Horse Park, and is open daily, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission to the museum also includes free admission to the Kentucky Horse Park. As always, current museum members receive free admission to both the Showplace for Saddlebreds and the Kentucky Horse Park, as well as 10 percent off gift shop and online purchases.
