Wyoming students recognized for artwork by Governor Gordon

Fourteen Wyoming students from across the state were recognized for their artwork in Cheyenne on May 17 by Governor Gordon. The celebration acknowledged their achievement in art and excellence in interpreting agriculture and natural resource concepts.

Each year Wyoming Agriculture in the Classroom (WAIC) encourages second, third, fourth and fifth grade students to submit a hand drawn bookmark for the program. This year WAIC received over 1500 entries, from students across Wyoming.

Among the student artists recognized was Luke Halverson who is in the second grade, attending Sundance Elementary school. Halverson’s educator is Tina Inghram and principal is Brian Hartwig. First Northern Bank sponsored Halverson’s bookmark.

The students’ artwork is published and distributed around the state. If you would like copies of the bookmarks or information about the program, please contact WAIC at http://www.wyaitc.org or at 307-369-1749
