🐴🎨 Calling horse-loving artists of all ages!

🎨🐴 THE STAR EQUESTRIANS ART SHOW & CONTEST IS OFFICIALLY KICKING OFF! 🐴🎨

And we’re starting with something pretty exciting…

This old saddle is about to be transformed into a one-of-a-kind work of equestrian art, painted on commission by a talented artist. ✨

This is the BEFORE…

But this is only ONE part of what’s coming!

🎨 THE ART CONTEST 🎨

Artists of ALL AGES — kids, teens AND adults — are invited to let their creativity run wild and create their own horse-inspired artwork.

🏆 Artwork will be displayed as part of the Star Equestrians Art Show, where we’ll celebrate the creativity and talent of our community.

And there will be winners, prizes and plenty of horse-loving art to admire! 🐴❤️

PLUS…

🎨🐴 THE SADDLE TRANSFORMATION!

Once this commissioned saddle is completed, it will be auctioned, giving one lucky person the chance to take home this truly unique piece of equestrian art.

So follow along…

The saddle transformation is about to begin.
The artists are getting ready.
And the Star Equestrians Art Show & Contest is coming to life!

Let’s make this one unforgettable! ❤️🎨🐴
