Our Projects

Arizona Western Heritage Foundation Museum

With such a rich history of the western culture in the State of Arizona and the Town of Queen Creek , our ultimate vision is to design, build & maintain a location where we can pay tribute to our western heritage, both the past & present.

Y’all should know, the “Arizona Territory” was considered so lawless that it was refused statehood until February 14, 1912, when it entered as the 48th state. Rich in cowboy culture Arizona has it all, from cotton farming to cattle ranching, rodeo, arts, music, so much to celebrate and remember!

Our vision is to enrich the future generations with our history and continue our western heritage for generations to come.

We will be partnering with other community organizations on this project and we are very excited to be creating a location in the future to honor our past!

Town of Queen Creek, Horseshoe Park & Equestrian Centre

We are working with the Town of Queen Creek on a community partnership to further develop and ensure the future of Horseshoe Park & Equestrian Centre. One of our goals is to aid in generating the funding necessary for capitol improvements that will result in positive revenue streams, allowing Horseshoe Park to continue benefitting our community through its rich cultural events and tremendous economic impact, allowing for our future generations in the Town of Queen Creek and the State of Arizona to continue on our western heritage. Look for more to come and opportunities to help our community!

Looking for a place for your equestrian event… Horseshoe Park & Equestrian Centre offers Big Town Performance with a Small Town Feel!
