The Booth’s permanent collection of Western art, Presidential portraits and letters, and Civil War art allows visitors to “See America’s Story” – the land, people, struggles, dreams, and legends – in paintings, sculpture, photography and artifacts. Sagebrush Ranch is an award-winning, hands-on experience and interactive children’s gallery. Temporary exhibits are changed every three to four months in four galleries, resulting in 12 to 15 exhibitions per year, the most in any Georgia art museum. Within our 120,000 square feet of space the Booth is a great size to see in a day, but more than enough to make additional trips a rewarding surprise.
Guests can also enjoy freshly made sandwiches, salads, burgers, and desserts plus light snacks and a variety of drinks in the Blevins Bistro. Before you leave, be sure to visit to the Candance Alexander McNair Store for books on art and Western culture, as well as prints, novelty items and more.
Additional features include a 240-seat banquet room available for special events; a 140-seat theatre available for lectures, artist’s discussions, round-table panels and film screenings; and an orientation theatre. These spaces are available to rent for all event types, including wedding ceremonies and receptions, anniversaries, birthdays, holiday parties, corporate meetings, luncheons, and so much more!
