Special event at Clay Paper Scissors Gallery Cheyenne Artwalk + Event Recap: Wyoming Women to Watch Exhibit at Ucross

Ucross Art Gallery will host a reception celebrating the opening of Wyoming Women to Watch.

Representing Wyoming for the first time in the history of this exhibition series was our Wyoming Women to Watch finalist, Sarah Ortegon HighWalking.

The Wyoming Committee of the National Museum of Women in the Arts will cohost an event to celebrate the opening.

Five artists from across Wyoming converge at Shari Brownfield Fine Art this March as the first stop in a traveling exhibition titled Wyoming Women to Watch. While only geography and gender connect the artists, each of the five were shortlisted for inclusion in a major exhibition at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, DC.

April 14–August 11, 2024

Contemporary artists from around the globe reimagine past, present and alternate realities

In 2021 Lisa Fleischman launched the Wyoming Committee for the National Museum of Women in the Arts (WYNMWA). Since then, the work of our volunteer committee, with the support of our generous donors, has been uplifting women artists in Wyoming by promoting them across the state and on a national stage through our collaboration with the National Museum of Women in the Arts.

Sarah Ortegon, from the Wind River Reservation, was selected to have her work featured in the 2024 NMWA biennial exhibit, a first for a Wyoming woman artist.
