Concerts will be held at the Museum of the American West in Lander, Wyoming in the Dickinson Livery Stable. Built in 2004 as a replica of the circa 1876 Dickinson Stable, the building provides an excellent venue for musical performances. A variety of unique pioneer wagons are on display in the stable, including several courtesy of the Fremont County Pioneer Museum, as well as a Yellowstone Stagecoach on loan from the Mountain Man Museum in Pinedale.

The Museum of the American West was established as a unique not-for-profit outdoor/indoor museum complex. For the museum's patrons and visitors, MAW highlights the cultural heritage of Central Wyoming. MAW offers educational programming, entertainment and tours of the Pioneer Living History Village.
