Springville Museum Tour this Saturday

Hey everyone,

The Salt Lake Gallery Association is organizing a bus trip to the Springville Museum of Art where the director, Vern Swanson, will provide a short introduction to the exhibits.
Details:

Saturday, May 2nd;
Leaving at 11:45 am
Returning to Salt Lake by 4:30 pm.

Meet at the SDI parking lot right behind the Rio Grande Depot on 300 South and 500 West.

The buses are already paid for by the SLGA and TRASA Urban Arts Collective.

If you want to meet the group at the Springville Art Museum, show up at 1 PM. Tell them you're with the Gallery Association tour. Maybe drop the name "Cheryl."

Although the permanent collection is available for viewing, we will focus on the 85th Spring Salon. This is a well-known juried exhibition for Utah artists which features all styles of artistic expression.

There will also be an exhibit called Redrock, Sage and Pinon with an accompanying book by Drs. Vern G. Swanson and Donna Poulton, Painters of Utah’s Canyons and Deserts.

The exhibit, which spans over 100 years, includes such artists as Maynard Dixon, John Fery and Alfred Lambourne. Featuring the raw and untamed beauty of the Wild West, each work highlights the depth and wonder of canyons and deserts unique to Utah. With the striking contrast of the bright blue sky against the red rock, it is no wonder why artists were drawn to the National Parks and Monuments including Zion National Park, Bryce National Park, Backcountry Arches, Bridges, and Monuments, the Grand Staircase-Escalante and Capitol Reef.


Please invite anyone that would be interested in joining! If you are interested in reserving seats on the bus, please email kristina@slga.info ASAP.
