Free for members! Coffee & Curators invites members to enjoy coffee, refreshments, and the company of other members as one of the Center of the West’s curators speaks on a topic related to their content area – special projects, recent acquisitions, significant objects, and future plans. It’s a great way to learn what’s going on behind-the-scenes at the Center of the West!
At our April program, meet Paul Hutton, the Buffalo Bill Museum’s interim curator, and learn why Buffalo Bill still matters! Hutton is an American cultural and military historian, an award-winning author, documentary writer, and television personality. He is also Distinguished Professor of History at the University of New Mexico, a former executive director of the Western History Association, and a past president of Western Writers of America. He earned his BA, MA, and PhD from Indiana University. He is a six-time winner of the Western Writers of America Spur Award and a six-time winner of the Western Heritage Award from the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum.
