PPHM Hosts Opening Reception for Jeri Salter Exhibition in Partnership with AMoA
Canyon, Texas — The Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum (PPHM) is proud to present a new exhibition showcasing the landscapes of renowned Texas artist Jeri Salter. A special opening reception will be held to celebrate the exhibit, welcoming museum members and VIP guests to experience Salter’s stunning pastel works in person.
The exhibition is organized by PPHM in partnership with the Amarillo Museum of Art (AMoA), with additional support provided by Dr. Kent Roberts and Illene Roberts Balliett Foundation and Foltz Fine Art. This collaboration highlights a shared commitment to showcasing regional art and providing meaningful cultural experiences for the Texas Panhandle community. A selection of works by Frank Reaugh is also on exhibit and serves as a complement to Salter’s contemporary interpretations of light interacting with the unique landscape and broad skies.
The opening reception will take place:
June 26
6-8 PM
Amarillo Museum of Art (AMoA)
Light refreshments will be served. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from our Curator of Art, Deana Craighead, meet the artist and explore the exhibit.
Often compared to Frank Reaugh for their shared medium and subject matter, Jeri Salter is widely recognized for her expressive landscapes that capture the subtle beauty of Texas and the Southwest. Through her expert use of pastel, Salter invites viewers to slow down and experience the sense of place each scene evokes.
“This exhibition not only showcases Jeri’s exceptional talent but also reflects the spirit of the land and people that define our region,” said Deana Craighead, Curator of Art at PPHM. “We’re excited to welcome visitors and celebrate this partnership with AMoA.”
The exhibition will remain on view now through September 28. For more information about the reception or the exhibit, please contact visit www.panhandleplains.org.
