An even number of artists will be juried from both Wyoming and Colorado, generating a cohesive show that represents both arts scenes. There is no fee to enter this show.

About the ArtHaus

The ArtHaus is an innovative way to bring the community together via a mobile art space, designed to promote the arts and arts experiences to a broad audience. Created and implemented by Arts Cheyenne, this program has the flexibility to expose new art ideas, concepts, installations, visualizations, and performances to anyone in the community, allowing those who would not normally attend arts events access to them. The ArtHaus is regularly programmed, featuring artists, workshops, special exhibitions, and other events throughout the calendar year.

The purpose of the Greeley Art Association shall be to open communication among artists, to promote and encourage increased involvement in the arts through education, to share knowledge, to cooperate in promoting our mutual understanding and appreciation of the arts, and-for those so motivated–to foster the betterment of our art and its marketability.

    Fear & the Unknown

    In the spirit of Halloween and ‘spooky season’ we are looking for those artists who thrive in horror, the thrill of the supernatural, and all things considered creepy and scary. This show is meant to call into question those human fears we all face this time of year, creating a truly haunting experience inside the ArtHaus. For this show, we will feature the artwork in an ethereal setting, creating a haunted environment that gives the art of ‘Fear and the Unknown’ a new dimension.
