The Celebrate Wyoming People’s History project uplifts the individuals, groups, events, and movements that have shaped Wyoming’s social and cultural landscape. In partnership with the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, Alces Community Worksis working local aritsts—including young people!— to create posters that honor the state’s often-overlooked histories of labor, community organizing, and collective care.

This responsive initiative partners artists from across Wyoming with public lands advocates and policymakers to co-create a series of free, accessible posters that celebrate—and advocate for—our shared public lands. Great for rallies, hanging in your living room window, or sharing with another pal in the West. Three posters to date!

Community Kitchen is our cultural exchange project that brings people together through shared cooking, storytelling, and care. Each gathering centers a family from our local community, inviting them to share food traditions from their home culture while cooking alongside neighbors in Laramie.

The White Pelican Project takes its name from the beloved bird that migrates between the Gulf Coast of New Orleans and the Intermountain West, embodying connection across distance and place. This initiative brings New Orleans–based storytellers, artists, and creatives to Albany County to share their practices through free, community workshops.

In Good Hands is our ongoing public art initiative that places original artwork inside two of Laramie's most essential healthcare spaces: 7220 Counseling, which specializes in LGBTQIA+ mental health, and the Downtown Clinic, which serves our uninsured neighbors, and Laramie Reproductive Health which supports us in all our reproductive health needs!

Alces is consulting with Maravilla — a retreat center in Taos whose invitation to reconnect with wonder draws seekers, artists, and thinkers to one of the most creatively charged landscapes in the American West — on the development of their artist residency program.

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.

Alces partnered with the Laramie Plains Civic Center to design interpretive materials that illuminate the rich history of the building. Drawing from LPCC’s archival collections and historical documents, we created a public-facing exhibit that shares the layered story of the space, from its origins to its evolving role in the community.
