Pistils and Petals: Wyoming’s Polli-Nation

December 17, 2022 - February 12, 2023

Exhibition open December 17, 2022 – February 12, 2023

More than 80 percent of the world’s flowering plants need a pollinator to reproduce and survive. This year the student-curated project presented by art students at Jackson Hole High School focuses on local wildlife and pollination. The students working on this project wanted to spotlight the theme of pollinators vs pollinated all across Wyoming. “We believe that pollination is a crucial part of the many vibrant ecosystems here in Wyoming, without the help of our pollinators, we wouldn’t be able to enjoy the beauties of a diverse Wyoming,” the student curators Bella DiPaola, Madeleine Moore, Maggie Hofmann, and Zoe Joralemon wrote.

The National Museum of Wildlife Art is dedicated to displaying student art in a professional setting, and we are proud to partner with young artists from Jackson Hole High School on this exhibit.
