The Governor’s Capitol Art Exhibition is a biennial juried exhibit that celebrates the work of Wyoming artists. The exhibition was established in 2000 under an initiative by Gov. Geringer and is organized by the Wyoming State Museum and the Wyoming Arts Council.
This exhibition is the primary avenue for the state museum to acquire modern Wyoming art for its Capitol and permanent collections. The art for the Capitol collection is selected by the state’s five elected officials and representatives from other state agencies. While the museum’s curators select purchase awards for the Museum’s permanent art collection, all other artwork in the exhibition is available for sale to the general public.
The juried exhibition will be on display from February 9 through August 10, 2024, at the Wyoming State Capitol in Cheyenne.
This year’s juror is Terri Porta from Billings, Montana.
Last year several Big Horn County artists were featured.
