The Showplace for Saddlebreds
celebrates the breeding program at the late

International Museum
of the Horse,
Kentucky Horse Park
The International Museum
of the Horse presents a new
concept in special exhibitions
with Equine Treasures of
the Bluegrass. Utilizing
the museum’s permanent
exhibits and collections as
its framework, as well as art
and artifacts from some of
the Commonwealth’s leading
museums, libraries and
private collectors, the exhibit
tells the fascinating story of
the mystical bond between
Kentuckians and their horses.
