Desert Reflections: Water Shapes the West

Water shapes both the High Desert landscape and the ways in which humans and animals live within it. For Desert Reflections, the Museum has commissioned four artists to create contemporary works in response to the complex topic of water in this region. This unique and interdisciplinary exhibition will explore regional concerns and global issues surrounding this precious resource. How is water in the High Desert managed, what challenges arise, and how are people collaborating to create a sustainable future?
