"Contemporary Dance Wyoming presents RESET, an evening of contemporary dance that explores transformation, transition, and the space between what was and what is becoming.

Featuring works by Babs Case, Gina Patterson, and Francesca Romo, RESET weaves together three distinct choreographic voices into a shared investigation of change. From moments of stillness and suspension to bold physical expression, each piece reflects on the act of beginning again, what it means to release, to reconfigure, and to move forward.

With striking visual elements and evocative staging, the performance moves through themes of thresholds, perception, and renewal. A door becomes a passage, light becomes architecture, and sound becomes a landscape with each element guiding both dancers and audience through cycles of presence and transformation.

In a world that rarely slows down, RESET offers a space to pause, reflect, and reconnect through movement. It is an invitation to witness not just performance, but also process, and to experience the beauty, tension, and possibility held within every new beginning."

Plein Air in the Parks seeks to engage regional artists in the legacy of painting on-site outdoors while exploring Wyoming State Parks.

Plein Air in the Parks seeks to engage regional artists in the legacy of painting on-site outdoors, all while exploring the rich landscapes of Wyoming. This partnership program began in 2018 at Sinks Canyon State Park and has become a very anticipated annual event. Artists are invited to participate through one or all of the days, and the public is invited to explore and talk to artists throughout our time at the park, which culminates with a reception, show, and sale. At the reception artists are able to show their works completed during their time in the park while guests can browse, talk with the creators, and purchase artwork. Cash prizes are selected by outside jurors, and a People’s Choice Award is selected by attendees of the reception.

The reception will be held on June 28th at the Guernsey State Park Museum from 3-5 PM.

The Annual Center Benefit Concert
The Center’s annual outdoor fundraising event returns Sunday, June 28th, featuring The California Honeydrops. The Center Benefit is the perfect chance for our community to celebrate the arts in Jackson Hole. As our primary fundraiser, this event supports all aspects of our mission to connect our creative community. The event will include local food trucks and participation from many of The Center’s 20 Resident Nonprofit Partners.

The California Honeydrops
Formed in the subway systems of Oakland, retro-soul outfit The California Honeydrops are an electrifying group that defy convention at every turn. Led by the enigmatic and energetic frontman, Lech Wierzynski, and percussionist Benjamin Malament, each member of the band is a virtuoso in their own rite — Yanos “Johnny Bones” Lustig on saxophone, Lorenzo Loera on keyboards/guitar, Beaumont Beaullieu on drums, Miles Blackwell on bass, and regularly accompanied by Oliver Tuttle on trombone, Leon Cotter on saxophone/clarinet, and Miles Lyons on trombone/sousaphone — navigating through a vast repertoire of original songs and timeless classics every night. But what truly sets them apart is their unwavering commitment to the art of improvisation – a skill so finely honed that they have completely abandoned the use of set lists and no two shows are ever the same.

Free and open to the public! Join Stoner Family Education Curator Meaghan Heinrich for this fun, informative and engaging music sessions for young children and their adult caretakers, geared for listeners ages one through five.

Special thanks to Jackson Hole Land Trust for hosting GTMF at Greenspace on the Block.
