Vision Statement:
The President’s Public Art Committee strives to advance the aesthetic and physical environment of the University of Wyoming by creating an integrated mixed use of public spaces that reflects the University’s teaching, research, and service mission and acknowledges its heritage. Art can become the physical expression ofthe University of Wyoming and that art can further inquiry and widen knowledge. Finding a balance from traditional to contemporary is essential in creating public spaces that challenge and broaden the experience of our students, faculty, staff, donors, and visitors on campus.
