Congratulations! Mr. Carruth's mother was one of three founding members of the Western Art Academy Scholarship Program.
As stated on the WAA website "The scholarship program resulted from chance meetings between Griffiths Carnes, Cowboy Artists of America Museum Director; Sandy Poole, School Art Committee Chairman, Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™; and Ethel Carruth, School Art Scholarship Sub-Committee Chairman, Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™. Their goal was to transform the School Art Committee’s rodeo poster contest into a higher educational program." That was 36 years ago!Congratulations to the new Rodeo leadership elected for the 2021 Show, with Brady Carruth named as the new chairman of the board. Read more >> bit.ly/30uUXyG ...
