“Public Art brings excitement to our public gathering spaces and creates art that is free and accessible for all people. GlowNights installations benefit local businesses by increasing foot traffic day and night, driving regional visitors, and beautifying public spaces. GlowNights is also the perfect antidote to the dark of winter, bringing dynamic art, warm lights and local artists that add to our beautiful sense of place in Town and Teton Village.”
GlowNights is a month-long “must see” exhibit of original art installations that use colored and white light as a medium to celebrate the unique phenomena found in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE). Produced by Jackson Hole Public Art, GlowNights artists draw inspiration from the megafauna, calderas, hot springs, and dramatic vistas that inspire.Teton Village GlowNights returned for its second year with: Ice Glowbs by Bland Hoke, Get Out/Get In by CLB Architects, Flora Moon by Maggie West, Heart Mountain provided by JHMR, and a restored “Generation Two Tram” now on display provided by JHMR and Teton Village Association.
