Jackson, Wyo. — A new public art call is now open through the Wyoming Arts Council. Central Wyoming College is constructing a new building in Jackson, which will include classrooms and facilities for course instruction. Artwork will be commissioned for the facility’s interior through the State of Wyoming’s Art in Public Buildings program, with the main hall clerestory identified as a key location.

The Request for Qualifications (RFQ) is open to artists with a deadline of June 30, 2025. This is a regional call for proposals open to artists in the following Wyoming counties: Fremont, Hot Springs, Lincoln, Park, Sublette, and Teton. The entire Wind River Reservation is also eligible to enter. Also included are the following Idaho counties: Bingham, Bonneville, Caribou, Fremont, Jefferson, Madison, and Teton. Wyoming-based artists will be given preference. 

Full details and the call for entry is available on CaFE (callforentry.org). All submissions must be submitted through CaFE by the stated deadline. There is a committee for the project, tasked with reviewing applications, selecting finalists, and making the final artwork selection.

The Art in Public Buildings program is administered by the Wyoming Arts Council and was established in 1991 to set aside a portion of capital construction funds for the sole use of commissioning public art for the building. Since then, over 200 pieces of art have been placed in and around buildings across Wyoming for the public to enjoy. Learn more about this program by visiting the Arts Council website at wyomingartscouncil.org.
