Also new this year, there are two ways to participate in the Western Visions Sale– virtual or live, in-person. The live event offers a memorable evening of connecting with fellow art enthusiasts and renowned wildlife artists, while the virtual option allows you to join online from home and receive full access to all of the works for sale. Tickets can be purchased at WildlifeArtEvents.org.
“We’re happy to be able to offer the evening sale event in-person again, but also give those who can’t make it to Jackson Hole the opportunity to purchase one-of-a-kind art,” says Michelle Dickson, Director of Programs and Events at the National Museum of Wildlife Art. “The show will look a little different this year, featuring smaller format works: paintings are within 16″ x 20″ and sculptures are within 18″ in any one dimension. This new format opens the door for a larger audience to show their support.”

About National Museum of Wildlife Art
The National Museum of Wildlife Art, founded in 1987, is a Jackson Hole museum holding more than 5,000 artworks representing wild animals from around the world. Featuring work by prominent artists such as Georgia O’Keeffe, Andy Warhol, Robert Kuhn, John James Audubon, and Carl Rungius, the Museum’s unsurpassed permanent collection chronicles much of the history of wildlife in art, from 2500 B.C. to the present. Built into a hillside overlooking the National Elk Refuge, the Museum received the designation “National Museum of Wildlife Art of the United States” by order of Congress in 2008. Boasting a museum shop, interactive children’s gallery, Restaurant, and outdoor sculpture trail, the Museum is only two-and-a-half miles north of Jackson Town Square, and two miles from the gateway of Grand Teton National Park.
