T. Boone and Madeleine Pickens’ Ponies

in Uncategorized



Madeleine and T. Boone Pickens hosted a heritage celebration at the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian on Thursday, May 20th.  Several hundred guests – and dozens of Congressmen and notables – milled around the cultural center’s courtyard teepee before heading in for a dinner with prominent Native American tribal leaders. 

Also in the courtyard, were seven wild Mustangs, on better behavior than some dinner guests.  “We recognize the horses we are presenting for the significant role they played in the history of our beautiful country,” said Saving America’s Mustangs Foundation Founder Madeleine Pickens, while honoring the Horse Nation – which turned out to be the real guests of honor at the evening’s event.  
The evening also featured entertainment by GRAMMY nominee and eight time Native American Music Awards winner, Jana Mashonee, head of the Jana’s Kids Foundation, and singer and actress Katharine McPhee with opera singer Josh Page performing David Foster’s “The Prayer.”
