About
The Center's mission is to connect the creative community of Jackson Hole by providing a dedicated campus, supporting excellent programming, and nurturing a collaborative spirit. It is the Center's vision to make artistic experience central to Jackson Hole by embracing the values of stewardship, excellence, inclusion, creativity, and respect. In this way, the Center makes the arts accessible to all in the Jackson Hole and surrounding community. To achieve its purposes, the Center hosts other community arts organizations at its main campus and operates arts programs.(Continued on Schedule O)A core part of the Center's mission is to enhance arts and culture in its community. Jackson Hole has developed a robust community of small arts organizations, which were slowly disappearing due to the high cost of rent in the area. From the beginning, part of the purpose of the Center's main campus was to provide space at substantially below cost for multiple arts organizations to flourish. The Center now has nineteen nonprofit arts and education "Resident organizations exempt under Section 501(c)(3) as tenants. In addition to substantially below cost rent for office space, these organizations receive deeply discounted access to the Center's campus for performances, exhibitions and other displays of their work. In some cases, that access is complimentary, allowing Residents to work closely with each other and form new collaborations using the common spaces, conference centers, and equipment of the Center for free.In addition to Resident Organizations, the Center conducts several creative programs of its own. Currently, the four main ones are: Center Presents, Creative in Residence, Center Collaborations, and Campus Exhibitions. The Center Presents series brings a diverse selection of national and internationally recognized performers to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Creative in Residence provides support and space for visiting artists to work at the Center, alongside the artistic community. The Center Collaborations program supports outstanding programming on the arts campus based on creative merit, shared audiences, and resources (financial need), and encourages risk-taking artwork. And Campus Exhibitions add visual vibrancy to the Center by supporting and showcasing a diverse group of artists, particularly young artists and artists who might not otherwise be recognized more broadly. The Campus Exhibitions program is pivotal in creating a positive and artistic experience for patrons visiting the Center.
