JACKSON, Wyo. — The 10th annual Spirit of Wyoming Bottle Art Contest by Jackson Hole Still Works is officially underway. This year’s theme is the same as every other: Wyoming.

Past winners have submitted artwork of flora, grizzly bears and elk. Artwork doesn’t have to represent real wildlife, either; in 2017 a piece titled “Jackson Hole Jackalope” won.

Artwork must be submitted by midnight on Jan. 12, 2026. Eight finalists will be selected by a jury of industry representatives and will be notified on Jan. 14, 2026. Their submissions will be displayed on Jackson Hole Still Works social media pages from Jan. 28 to Jan. 30, 2026.

After the grand prize winner is announced, original artwork from the finalists will be put up for silent auction for two weeks. All proceeds benefit the Wyoming Arts Council.

The contest winner will have their artwork featured on the Jackson Hole Still Works vodka bottle label for one year, receive $2,500 and a case of the vodka with their artwork. Entry guidelines can be found here.
