About this event

Step into an evening where the myth of the American West gets rewritten by nine women artists, at The Cathedral's August Open House — featuring Out West, a group exhibition with Abbey Engrav, Anna Ganina, Anna Kamburis, Dorothy Nottingham, Emily Eisenberg, Emily Galusha, Eryn Brooke, Jane Reichle, and Sandra Boskamp. Voted as one of the top three places to see art in Austin, this Latina-owned gallery is proud to gather nine of today's most compelling voices under one roof for a singular, immersive exhibition experience. Throughout the evening, guests are invited to move through the space, sit with the work, and feel what it means to reclaim a landscape through someone else's eyes. Connect with the artists, gather with Austin's creative community, and enjoy an open bar featuring craft cocktails, all inside one of the most distinctive gallery spaces in the city. Whether you're a longtime collector or simply art-curious, Open House nights at The Cathedral are designed to make contemporary art approachable, engaging, and alive. About the exhibit: There's a version of the West you already know — the lone cowboy, the untamed frontier, told mostly by men, about men, for a very long time. Out West flips the script. Nine women artists bring nine distinct visions of the West together in one gallery, one night — bright, bold boots, cowgirls glowing gold in the afternoon sun, and wilderness full of wild creatures — all filtered through a perspective the western canon has largely left out. Come see the West reclaimed — not through confrontation, but through the quiet, undeniable power of a woman's perspective. Want to go deeper? Don't miss the Artist Talk.
