Wyoming Arts Council holds its artist roster selection panel Jan. 20 in Cheyenne

The Wyoming Arts Council will hold its annual artist roster selection panel on Friday, Jan. 20, 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m., in the Arts Council Gallery, 2320 Capitol Ave., Cheyenne.

The meeting is open to the public.

Every year, the WAC invites applications for its roster. A panel of artists and arts professionals then convenes to review the applicants and select those that meet the established criteria.

Last year, the panel selected 29 new artists and arts groups, raising the number of talented Wyoming roster artists to 69. Wyoming arts organizations, schools or communities can bring in any of these artists through an Arts Across Wyoming grant.

To view the current artist roster, or to get more information about grants, go to the WAC web site.

For more information about the panel meeting, please call the WAC at 307-777-7742.
