Center for the Arts in Jackson, Wyoming, invites artists and artist teams to submit qualifications for a temporary light-based installation celebrating The Center's 20th Anniversary. The selected installation will transform the Theater Gallery through the creative use of light and remain on view for approximately one year.

The Center welcomes proposals for new site-responsive installations, adaptations of existing works, or existing installations available for temporary loan.
This is a Request for Qualifications (RFQ). A site-specific proposal is not required.
