State of the Art: Student Art Show

February 16, 2021 - May 9, 2021

This youth art exhibition is a collaboration between the Museum and the local art educators in Teton County. The goal of this exhibit is to engage children with art on a higher level and demonstrate the sequential skills students learn through their school art programs. The exhibition features more than 300 works of art by K – 12 students from 14+ local schools. Students are then invited to bring their families to the Museum to enjoy the collaborative art show.

ESTADO DEL ARTE:

Esta exposición de arte juvenil es una colaboración anual entre el Museo Nacional de Arte de Vida Silvestre y los educadores de arte de nuestras escuelas locales. Los cientos de piezas de arte en exhibición demuestran maravillosamente cómo los estudiantes evolucionan y crecen como artistas, a medida que avanzan en los grados K-12. Cada educador de arte interpretó el tema Elementos a su manera. ¡La diversidad de los medios y el enfoque artístico muestran la creatividad de nuestros estudiantes y la calidad de la educación artística en el condado de Teton!

Transformations: Wildlife in Inuit Art and Culture

Through May 5, 2024

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.
