The American Plains Artists was organized in 1982 as a small group of artists banded together to highlight through their art, the variety to be found in the American Plains.

The American Plains Artists has grown into a nonprofit organization. The group's goals include educating the public through traditional and representational art works about the American Plains through landscape, wildlife, peoples and way of life in historical or modern times.

Activities of the American Plains Artists include organizing an annual juried show to encourage, inform and reward artists working in traditional media who maintain high standards of quality and integrity in their representational recordings and artistic expressions of the heritage and history of the Plains. Additional activities include scholarships, workshops, demonstrations, lectures and an opportunity for members to network.
