The Hall of Great Western Performers (sometimes called the Western Performers Hall of Fame) is a hall of fame at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. It is a 4,000-square-foot (370 m2) presentation that explores how the American West has been interpreted in literature and film.[1] Each year, the museum inducts performers to the hall in conjunction with the awarding of the Western Heritage Awards.[2]
