Friends of the Beach Museum of Art
Gift Print
Each year, the Friends of the Beach Museum of Art commissions a limited-edition print by a recognized Kansas artist for sale to Friends and the public. Jeremiah Ariaz, who was raised in Great Bend, Kansas, and is professor of art at Louisiana State University, has been selected for this honor.
Gavin (front) and Jock (rear) Saddle Horses, Ride or Die Club (Opelousas, LA) from the exhibition Jeremiah Ariaz: Louisiana Trail Riders has been chosen as the 2019 Friends of the Beach Museum of Art Gift Print. The photograph shows Gavin Sinegal and Jock Chambers preparing their horses for an afternoon trail ride. Gavin, pictured at seven years old, has been riding since he was three, when he received his first horse, Sugar. He and his family are members of the “Ride or Die Club” of Opelousas, Louisiana. They are one of the many trail riding clubs in southwest Louisiana. The approximately ten adult club members along with their many junior members have been riding together for a decade.
The print is available for $250; Friends of the Beach Museum of Art members at the $100 level or higher are eligible for a 25% discount. For more information about supporting the museum as a Friend or purchasing a gift print, call 785-532-7718 or go to beach.k-state.edu.
