The Angus Foundation invites Angus breeders, industry supporters and cattle enthusiasts to gather in Kansas City, Mo., for the 2025 Angus Convention, hosted Oct. 31–Nov. 2.  

A highlight of the weekend will be the Awards Dinner on Saturday, Nov. 1, at 6 p.m., where the outstanding achievements of Angus breeders will be recognized. Attendees will also have the opportunity to bid on exclusive auction items in support of the Angus Fund. 

Awards Dinner and Reception Auction Items:

“In the Heart of America, Shape the Future of Angus” is more than a theme, it’s a call to action. Participating in the auction directly supports the Angus Fund, which provides unrestricted resources to advance the Angus Foundation’s mission of education, youth and research. These funds help programs like the Beef Leaders Institute and the LEAD Conference. 

Angus Bull Bronze Sculpture 

Created by artist Jim Reno in 1984, this bronze Angus bull sculpture captured the ideal Angus phenotype, modeled after VDAR New Trend 315. Only 24 were cast, and this particular piece — number 8 of 24 — carries a legacy, having been gifted to Dr. Robert A. Long and later passed to retired American Angus Association CEO John Crouch. A rare and meaningful piece of Angus history. 

Framed Vintage Angus Ad Prints (Set of 2) 

Celebrate the legacy of Angus marketing with two framed vintage advertisements illustrated by Frank Murphy between 1951 and 1975. Featuring iconic slogans like “Increase Your Earning Power” and “They’re Worth More If They’re Black,” these prints are a nostalgic nod to the breeds history.
