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

Through May 21, 2026

This youth art exhibit is an annual collaboration between the National Museum of Wildlife Art and art educators from Teton County schools. The several hundred works of art on display beautifully demonstrate how students grow as artists as they move through grades K-12. Each art educator and group of students interpreted the theme Connections in their own way. The diversity of media and artistic approaches showcases the creativity of our students and the quality of art education in Teton County.

We are adding a bold pop of color to the Cache corridor this summer! Take a wander on the wild side and explore the Prismatic Menagerie from the National Museum of Wildlife Art to Center for the Arts—it’s a straight shot down Cache/Hwy 89. With five bold origami-inspired sculptures, this exciting outdoor exhibition brings Hacer’s work to Jackson Hole through a collaboration between two of Jackson’s impactful art institutions.
