It is no secret that Cheyenne has plenty of amazing art around town to see. There are certainly lots of aesthetically pleasing pieces from Big Boots to bronze statues to beautiful murals. And now a new mobile app is being developed to give tourists and residents customizable tours of the public art in and around Cheyenne.

Array School of Design and Technology has partnered with Visit Cheyenne to develop the new mobile app. The funding for the project is coming from apprenticeship grant money at Array, according to The Cheyenne Post. Arts Cheyenne and the Boys and Girls Club have catalogued information about public art pieces on display in Cheyenne.

Developing the app gives Visit Cheyenne another great service to offer to the community. Visit Cheyenne's Experience and Marketing Manager talked about the exciting benefits of the new mobile app:

Providing another platform for people to explore Cheyenne is exciting – we hope to reach another generation of tourists and show off our unexpected arts scene at the same time.

Visit Cheyenne already has several technologically navigated products that are offered through their digital platforms, such as a savings pass, the Big Boots audio tour, and the Pair of Pronghorn Scavenger Hunt, among others.

You probably recently noticed the addition of several new murals downtown thanks to the annual Paint Slingers' Street Art Festival that helps to make downtown Cheyenne look that much more aesthetically pleasing. With the number of those displays continuing to grow in Cheyenne, the Visit Cheyenne app will have lots of showcase in its growing database.

From Bison to Triceratops - All of Wyoming's Official Things

Every state in our nation has chosen things that represent the state in one way or another to be official state things. Like a flower, or animal. Wyoming is no different.

The Equality State, or the Cowboy State, depending on which state slogan you want to go with, has a state flower. But did you know we also have a state tree and a state fish? Yes, we even have a state code.

To be an official thing, a member of the state legislature must write and submit a bill to the legislature declaring that a thing will be the official state thing. Then the legislature votes to pass the bill, or not, if it passes, the governor signs the bill into law and we have a new official state thing.

Here is what we have so far, all of Wyoming's official things. Now you can win big on Wyo Trivia Night if that's a thing that exists.
