A five-day extravaganza of art comes to Casper this week in the form of the Casper College Literary Conference (Oct. 17-19), the Wyoming Arts Summit (Oct. 18-20), and the Wyoming Arts Alliance Block-Booking Conference (Oct. 19-20).
Thursday evening (Oct. 18) offers the opening reception for the Arts Summit (5-8 p.m.) at the Nicolaysen Art Museum and the “President’s Reception” for the Casper College Literary Conference from 5-7 p.m. at Fort Casper’s Izaak Walton Clubhouse.
Entertainment at The Nic includes the Impact Dance Company and music by The Tremors. Music will be provided by the Jeff Finlin Band at the literary conference, followed at 7 p.m. with readings by conference presenters Ekiwah Adler-Benendez, Nick Flynn, Valzhyna Mort, and Chad Hanson. These events are free and open to the public.

Don’t forget that ARTCORE offers Frank Ferrante as “Groucho” on Oct. 18, 7:30 p.m., at the Natrona County H.S. auditorium.
The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
