Which college did Georgia O'Keeffe teach at in Canyon, Texas?

Georgia O'Keeffe taught at West Texas State Normal College in Canyon, Texas.

O'Keeffe joined the faculty of West Texas State Normal College in Canyon in 1916 and taught there until 1918. The institution later became West Texas State University and is now known as West Texas A&M University.

Her time in the Texas Panhandle was important because the region's wide skies, plains, and dramatic light influenced her artistic imagination. She made drawings and paintings during this period, including abstractions that helped attract Alfred Stieglitz's attention.

O'Keeffe's teaching career also included positions at Columbia College in Columbia, South Carolina, and the University of Virginia. Canyon should not be confused with her later New Mexico locations: it was a Texas community where she taught before becoming a full-time professional artist.
