Keystone Arabian Horse experience is driven by The Arabian Promotional Fund, with a goal of promoting the Arabian horse to those communities outside of our own industry. What better way is there to accomplish that, than to honor both national and local charities at this event.
In 2022 we are proud to announce that The Keystone Arabian Experience raised over $50,000 to benefit these worthwhile organizations:
Black Stallion Reading Project
Horses N Heroes of Marion County

All of the Keystone Events are aimed to engage our large audience of spectators and newcomers visiting the event!
The judging of our Keystone Jackpot classes will help us do that by engaging the audience directly with a Crowd Vote! The Crowd Vote Winner will be presented with an award in each of the eligible Keystone classes!
The Keystone’s premier element is the installation of an Arabian Horse EXPERIENCE BARN. This barn will be open to all spectators visiting the our events and will allow newcomers to get up close and personal with our Arabian Ambassador horses.
