Ozark Heritage Exhibit featuring the L.L. Broadfoot Collection

The Lennis L. Broadfoot collection, housed at the Harlin Museum, is the most complete collection of art by the Shannon County, Missouri, artist. Broadfoot is best known as the artist who immortalized the often enigmatic people, places, and traditions of the turn-of-the-century Ozarks region, in multiple mediums, while also offering a firsthand narrative in the writings that frequently accompanied his works. He is the author of the highly regarded book, “Pioneers of the Ozarks,” in which the art and the histories were compiled to preserve his work.

The Harlin Museum is an all-volunteer organization, and sometimes there are staffing issues. If you are travelling a distance to see the Broadfoots, please check Harlin Museum of West Plains on Facebook for potential closures. Additional contact methods can be found at HarlinMuseum.com. Private tours can be arranged.

Admission is free, but donations are welcome.
