Creativity gets a little extra dimension at Art Uncork’d with Cody Kuehl at the Cheyenne Frontier Days Old West Museum. Kuehl, a self-taught artist known for his bold and popular New Western style, will lead this hands-on class built around layered designs on clear sheets of plastic, creating a 3D painting effect with depth and movement. This isn’t a paint-by-numbers kind of night, it’s more about learning Kuehl’s style and creating something that feels completely your own. Light refreshments will be provided as you learn to create your one-of-a-kind piece. This one will sell out, so get your spot now! Wed, May 27th, 5:30 p.m., CFD Old West Museum, 4610 Carey Ave, $40-$50.
