The Infectious Culture of Wyoming Wildlife
December 4, 2021 - February 6, 2022In the words of student curators Grace Curran, Kate Frederick, Madeleine Moore, and Sarahi Roldan:
“Microbes are a fascinating subject. In this exhibit, we chose to represent bacteria and viruses that have impacts on our local wildlife. These microbes are both beneficial and detrimental to their hosts, and we hope the artworks on display here inspire you to take a closer look at the mysterious world of microbes.”
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.

Transformations: Wildlife in Inuit Art and Culture
Through May 5, 2024Through 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.
