Jackson Hole Public Art (JHPA) has installed a community art project featuring self-portraits created by Wyoming residents. The project, called 250 Portraits, was launched in honor of the nation’s 250th anniversary and features artwork from individuals of all ages and backgrounds.

The portraits are now on display in five large-scale grid installations located throughout downtown Jackson. They can be found at the Center for the Arts, JH Book Trader, the Antler Inn, the alley at Pinky G’s, and the Jackson Hole Elks Lodge.
The exhibit was designed to highlight both individual identity and collective belonging, weaving together faces from communities large and small into a single, statewide visual portrait of Wyoming’s people. A self-guided walking map is available to help visitors navigate between the five sites and experience other public art projects throughout Jackson.
