The Wyoming Arts Council is holding the third round of statewide listening sessions in Cody and in Lander.
Every five years the Arts Council completes a new strategic plan in collaboration with the National Endowment for the Arts. As part of this process the Arts Council will be gathering feedback through public listening sessions, interviews, and small group meetings. Additionally, the Arts Council is accepting feedback through an online Google survey.
Schedule for listening sessions:
Lander

Lander Arts Center
258 Main St.
Lander, WY
Cody
Friday, Sept. 10 , 4 – 5:30 p.m.

These events are free and open to the public. Individual artists, community members, grantees, and volunteers, board members, and staff from local arts organizations are invited to attend. Thank you to local partners for hosting these listening sessions. All sessions will follow current Wyoming Health Department guidelines related to COVID-19.
A copy of the Wyoming Arts Council’s current strategic plan is available on the website, www.wyomingartscouncil.org, under the “About” tab. Additional listening sessions around the state are planned for later in the summer and into the fall.

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.
