This facility is a true tribute to the American Quarter Horse. It has pictures and statues of famous horses and people associated with the breed. A first class place with very friendly people. There are even interactive exhibits for children to enjoy. They have special events for the whole family to educate people and let kids interact with live animals. Amarillo is very lucky to have this nice facility.
Fantastic facility! Friendly staff. If you love the history of horses you can get it here. Displays of Hall of Famers, trophies, saddles, pictures, etc. Allow one and a half to two hours if you want to read everything.Good gift shop.
so much history and great things in here loved seeing the all the displays and such, i am huge racehorse enthusist so i enjoyed beign here
Not a horse lover but found it very interesting and I was in awe at the building itself. The displays were very well presented.
Very neat place with lot's of history and information. It takes you back in time reading all the biographies. If you are a horse/history person stop by. Beautifully done. Very grand.
This small museum on the east end of Amarillo just off I-40 displays a cool historic time line related to the history of the American Quarter Horse. Inexpensive and worth the trip.
We enjoyed spending time in the museum and plan to go back. Learned a lot on the history of the quarterhorse.
I'm not a horse person, but I wanted to kill an hour during my business trip and see the sights. It's a small, but nicely furnished museum. There are a couple of educational exhibits for non-horse people like myself, so you can easily spend an hour here. The videos were a bit dated, and could use an update - but I'm assuming they are there for nostalgia. Horse people probably know the old people in them. There is an art gallery inside also for those interested in that. In my opinion, the best time to visit would be when they have a live outdoor demonstration.
Every year this show gets better and better! It is almost indescribable the talent that is displayed in the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame and Museum in Amarillo, Texas! Jack Sorenson, Edgar Sotelo, newbie - Joshua Sorenson and the amazing Tyler Crow! Go see this before it is over. Plan on seeing it next year! You will be entertained with good art and a great museum tour.
This was a surprise. I learned so much about the quarterhorse. It has an interactive section reared toward children. It also has an audio option to a self guided tour that offers a very in depth look at the people who were a big part of the American Quarterhorse industry. Like any interest people have they are very passionate about what they have done and continue to do make this a respected sport. Great job!
