A changing display of paintings, sculpture, works on paper, and objects from the National Sporting Library & Museum’s Permanent Collection is presented in the Museum opened in 2011. The collection is installed in the historic wing of the Museum which was originally a Federal house built in 1804 called “Vine Hill.” The NSLM’s art collection continues to grow as a result of the Felicia Warburg Rogan Sporting Art Initiative, Mrs. Rogan’s generous donation of prominent British paintings in 2008, and other significant donations and bequests. Above, please enjoy a 360° virtual tour of highlights from summer 2020.

The National Sporting Library & Museum is excited to announce an indoor/outdoor bronze sculpture exhibition, Field Notes | Walter Matia, by contemporary artist Walter Matia. His study of biology, early work as a taxidermist, successful career as a conservationist, and life-long drive to observe nature as a hunter-naturalist, inform his sculptures of wild and domesticated animals and bring them to life.

Seven large-scale works of wild turkeys, a pointer, a Peregrine Falcon, Mourning Doves, Blue-winged Teal Ducks, Whooping Cranes, and a Great Blue Heron greet visitors throughout the NSLM’s grounds. Two interior galleries feature sculptures, bas reliefs, and a fire screen depicting a variety of sporting dogs and hounds, bison, and wild- and waterfowl. Several of the works in the exhibition serve as a reminder of threatened species in need of protection.

Field Notes | Walter Matia is generously underwritten by Susan and John Mullin. The exhibition will be on display throughout the summer and fall, closing on January 9, 2022. The campus is free and open to the public. Museum tickets are available for purchase Thursday–Saturday. Members will have free admission. Masks are required indoors at all times. Look for expanded visitation throughout the summer months at www.NationalSporting.org.
