"Wyoming Common Ground," an initiative of workshops, a radio series and reading discussion program, a primer for newcomers on Wyoming history and culture, a speaker series, and a regrant program to serve disabled audiences and small museums.

The WCH proposes “Wyoming Common Ground,” a multi-component project comprised of 1) “Common Ground: Shared Values in the Developing West,” a series of regional and local workshops on defining shared values around preservation and development issues; 2) “Faces of Family in Wyoming,” a radio series and reading discussion program centered on Wyoming’s working poor; 3) a primer for newcomers on Wyoming history and culture; 4) a packaged speaker series continuing this year’s “A Wyoming Conversation” and 5) a regrant program providing small grants to serve disabled audiences and small museums.
