Coming Soon: Your Chance To Meet The Resting Moose In Laramie

From The City Of Laramie:

Are you ready to meet Laramie’s Resting Moose?

In March, the Laramie Public Art Coalition (LPAC) began seeking artists or artist teams to create an interactive installation to fill a space previously occupied by a small flower garden near the front entry of City Hall. In August, LPAC deliberated over the three finalist submissions before landing on Peter Hazel Art’s “Resting Moose” statue.

Just as a moose is an indicator of a healthy wilderness ecosystem, public art is an indicator of cultural depth, socioeconomic prosperity, and successful collaboration between community stakeholders. “Resting Moose” is therefore a representation of a healthy community and a promise of a growing art scene in Laramie. “Resting Moose” is scheduled to be installed in spring/summer 2024.
