Our SPCR colleague, Sue Castaneda, reminds Wyoming artists that the application deadline (postmark) is Friday, Feb. 13, for the 9th Annual Governor’s Capitol Art Exhibition.
All artists living and working in Wyoming are invited to enter this juried competition. Selected pieces will be on display in the Wyoming State Museum in Cheyenne from April 20 through June 6. Additionally, all work submitted must be for sale with a maximum price of $5,000. Gov. Dave Freudenthal will present more than $10,000 in anticipated purchase awards at a public reception on May 1. Juror’s Choice and People’s Choice awards will also be presented.
Persons wishing to apply for the exhibit and/or Artist Image Registry can download applications from the Wyoming State Museum or call Sue Castaneda at 307–777-5810. Neither application requires an entry fee.
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.
