Located in the heart of the El Cajon Art District, the museum stands as a tribute to the man whose vivid portrayals of the American West captured the spirit of a bygone era. Olaf Wieghorst not only painted the West, but he lived it. Of all the places he could have called home, he chose El Cajon, where he raised his family, connected deeply with neighbors and friends, and truly began his artistic journey. Known as the “Dean of Western Art” his work has been proudly placed in the Oval Office of four American Presidents. This special community event will feature beloved local personality John Carroll as emcee, along with live music, light refreshments, and an afternoon filled with fun and fellowship. Adding to the Western spirit of the celebration, members of El Cajon Mounted Police will be in attendance.
