VIRTUAL EXHIBITS
CELEBRATION GALLERY
All art has an inception point. Sources of inspiration can be as diverse as the artworks they inspire. In this case, we've invited 49 artists, from Utah and across the country, to take a single staring point and create something unique. The artists on our list work in a variety of media, from painting and printmaking to assemblage and animation.

​Open Monday through Thursday from 9am to 5pm
