The 45th Annual Centennial Valley Art Show and Sale will take place July 4-5, 2026, at the Nici Self Historical Museum in Centennial, Wyoming. The free public exhibition features original photography, paintings, pottery, stained glass, and sculptures from over 20 local and regional artists from rural southeast Wyoming, including the Centennial Valley and surrounding communities. A portion of proceeds from every sale is donated to the museum as its main annual fundraiser.
This event matters as a key community fundraiser and cultural gathering for a small rural region, supporting the Nici Self Historical Museum while showcasing the work of local artists. It highlights the role of grassroots art exhibitions in sustaining regional heritage and providing accessible art experiences outside major urban centers.
