ManMadeBeastsTitleGraphic

This exhibit highlights the animals of the world and their growing encounters with humanity. Students’ compositions feature a thought-provoking interplay between wildlife and man-made environments.

This exhibit celebrates Jackson Hole High School student artists and provides a powerful experience for them to work together and present their art in a professional setting. To create this exhibit, a small group of student curators will conceive of a theme to present to over fifty of their peers who then create artwork based on that theme. This program promotes a student-centered learning agenda and offers local high school artists personal responsibility in generating a high quality, engaging product for museum visitors of all ages and backgrounds to enjoy.

Thank you to Jackson Hole High School Student Curators Kendyl Gersten, Lucy Kimmel, and Aspen Waldron.
