Women Artists from the TAM Collection

June 2 – September 5, 2020

In celebration of the nation’s Centennial anniversary of women’s suffrage, TAM will be paying homage to women artists during the 2020–2021 exhibit season.
Women Artists from the TAM Collection highlights artwork created by women from TAM's own permanent collection. The work is as diverse in subject matter and media as the unique women who created them. Included in this exhibition are many of the pioneering women responsible for eastern Idaho's rich artistic heritage.

Women Artists from the TAM Collection can be explored virtually thanks to Resin Architecture. Try our virtual exhibition scavenger hunt! While exploring the exhibition virtually, you will be able to find 9 "hidden" items from specific vantage points. Click here for virtual exhibit.
