Art for the Trails 2021

After a successful inaugural year, we are excited to partner with ART 321 for the 2021 Art for the Trails Public Art Market. Art for the trails is a program inviting artists from diverse backgrounds to engage with and be inspired by the Platte River Trail to create temporary art exhibitions that will connect trail users with the natural environment from the Tate Pumphouse to to the historic oil Derrick landmark along Casper's River Trail and at ART 321.

This public art display will take place during the month of July and
features local artist’s work along the North Platte River from the Tate Pumphouse. NEW this year: all works will be for sale after the exhibition to support local artists and continued public art initiatives. Another twist on this year’s program is the that the exhibits will judged by local experts in the art community and awarded first ($1,000), second ($500), and third place ($250) prizes. The 2021 Art for the Trails Public Art Market will remain on display
through August 6
th. 
 
Interested artists: mark your calendars for the the Art for the Trails Public Art Market Kick-off Webinar on April 15th at 6:00 pm. Join us for a discussion around inspiration and processes for this year's event, including how to participate and instruction on applying.
