FIELDNOTES
Field Notes is where we document the full range of what ALCES does in the world — beyond our signature projects, and into the everyday work of showing up. Here you'll find the partnerships we've joined, the events we've helped bring to life, the artists and organizers we've lent our resources to, and the short-term projects we've launched in response to what our community needs. It's a record of how we move — responsive, relational, and rooted in the belief that our platform exists to be shared.
RE-STORYING THE WEST
Re-Storying the West hosts state-wide story-gathering events designed to amplify the voices of everyday Wyoming citizens across a range of identities and roles. From the folks who cook our food, educate our children, serve in the military, build our homes, and keep our communities running through the good times and the challenges, their stories deserve a spotlight.
DISCUSS AND CONSTRUCT
With support from the National Endowment for the Humanities, we curated an evening with intergenerational Albany County residents, sharing a meal and participating in a guided conversation focused on community challenges, diverse perspectives, and collective hopes for the future.
Youth justice institute
The Youth Justice Institute (YJI) wasrooted in youth voice and action. It supported community-building, civic education, and resource mapping with teens in Albany County from 2021-2025. We supported spaces and programming where young folks can discuss issues that affect them in their communities, explore these issues with adult community leaders, and envision their futures through art making.
