This Giving Day, we want to appreciate the opportunities our incarcerated students have had over this year. From being able to Zoom in to multiple on-campus events, to having the works of many of our students featured in the Paño Connections traveling art exhibit, which highlights the incredible talent of incarcerated and previously incarcerated artists from communities across Wyoming.
