Produced by Jackson Hole Public Art and in partnership with Teton Village Association and the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, GlowNights 2020/21 opened in December with an exhibit of original, light-based installations inspired by ENERGY: how we use it, where it’s from, and where it will go. Energy Conservation Works (ECW), Jackson’s local energy conservation organization, partnered with JH Public Art to provide messages for the public via augmented reality at each installation.

Teton Village GlowNights was in its third year of illuminating solstice-season nights and was sponsored by Jackson Hole Mountain Resort and Teton Village Association. Two large scale, intricately-cut Luminaries, designed and built by Rexburg, Idaho’s Premier Powder Coating, were placed in the Village common space to bring wonder and awe to passersby. The Grand Antler, JH Public Art’s enormous inflated elk antler by local artist Bland Hoke, was suspended above the skiers flat next to the Mangy Moose and Heart Mountain, an illuminated crystal provided by JHMR, was also on view across from the Tram in Teton Village.
Jackson GlowNights hosted three installations: Tall Grasses by artist Geoffrey Hicks at the Center for the Arts Lawn; a new work titled The Sun by Bland Hoke at the Teton County Library; and Undercurrent by CLB Architects for Greenspace on the Block.
