Benjamin Mkapa African Wildlife Photography Awards

Bringing Africa to the World, and the World to Africa. What separates the Mkapa Photo Awards from other photo competitions is their core commitment to conservation through categories that are specific to topics of concern in modern Africa.

Transformations: Wildlife in Inuit Art and Culture

Through cultural stories, Transformations seeks to explore Inuit history, values, and beliefs. The exhibit is comprised of works from the permanent collection and items on loan from private collections. The hope, as it is with all exhibits, is that visitors take away a deeper appreciation of the artwork and perhaps are introduced to something that they did not know before. Most importantly, we want to bring attention to the fact that today Inuit artists are producing powerful artworks that reference histories and that, at the same time, confront contemporary issues such as conservation and environmental concerns.

State of the Art: Student Art Show in Honor of Marion Buchenroth

This youth art exhibit is an annual collaboration between the National Museum of Wildlife Art and art educators from Teton County schools.

Full Circle: An Exhibition of Community Creation, Curation, and Collaboration

This exhibition invites the community to be inspired by or re-interpret one of four works from NMWA’s permanent collection. Not only will the exhibition be comprised of works created by community members–it will also be curated by the community. The pieces selected from the submissions by a team of community curators will be displayed in the Wapiti Gallery alongside the inspiration prompt pieces from the permanent collection during the summer and fall of 2024.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT II

Comprised of works by contemporary artists, this exhibition considers issues that involve relationships between animals and humans, ecology, and conservation from both local and international perspectives. The goal of this exhibition is to heighten public awareness about the degradation of diverse environments through artworks that focus on the consequences of environmental destruction and devastation.
