"Bright Spots" in the state's creative economy will be highlighted Oct. 7 at Convergence Wyoming

This historic preservation project, Evanston's railyard roundhouse, wasn't
much of a "bright spot" when the renovation began ten years ago. 

Here's the same section of the roundhouse as it looks now,
all shiny and bright. 

Convergence Wyoming will feature sessions highlighting some of the many engaging projects already underway in the state's creative economy. Register online here.

The “Bright Spots” session will be held from 10-11:45 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 7, at the Cody Holiday Inn.
