You are invited to the Opening Reception of the “Beyond the Stampede” Art Show

Do you fondly reminisce about the oxen of the Hopewell Valley Stampede? We do too! The oxen won’t be returning, but we can bring back the artists of The Stampede. “Beyond the Stampede” is a reunion exhibition featuring the artwork of many of the artists who brought their talents to the Hopewell Valley Stampede.

Please join us on Thursday, April 14 from 6-8pm at Capital Health Medical Center - Hopewell to see the artwork, say hello to the artists, and hear the innovative fusion music of cellist and local resident Dan Kassel. All are welcome!

Finale Video

The Stampede Finale was a great celebration of art in the everyday with live music and food trucks, recognition of award winning Stampede artists, and winners of the online auction filling the afternoon with fun and excitement. Check out this fun video by video journalist John Bauwens! Winning bids are posted on the pages with the oxen that were part of the online auction.
From a local artist:
As an artist and a local resident, I'd like to thank the Council for this initiative and opportunity. Public art on a street level is a meaningful way to inspire the community and create wonder and excitement in the hearts of people, especially children. James J. Kelewae

Thanks to our Volunteers, Partners, and the Stampede's Founding Sponsors
