Welcome to the Nighthorse Campbell Native Health Building. We’re pleased to invite you to view our collection of artwork by renowned Western artist, Howard Terpning. This collection is on loan from Clancy and Linda Herbst. Dubbed “the most successful American artist that you’ve never heard of” by the New York Times, Mr. Terpning is viewed as one of the most influential artists chronicling American Indian history. We hope you will enjoy this audio tour recorded in the artists’ own voice.
