Salt Lake City
Sept. 17-19

Art lovers, collectors, and the community are invited to experience the Fifth Annual Art at The Park, returning to Salt Lake City this September after four successful years of connecting Utah artists with art enthusiasts. Now presented as part of ArtThrive, a new nonprofit organization dedicated to helping Utah art and artists to flourish, this year’s event promises its largest and most competitive exhibition yet.

Held at The Garden Place at This Is The Place Heritage Park (2601 Sunnyside Avenue, Salt Lake City, UT 84108), Art at The Park will showcase the work of more than 75 of Utah’s finest local fine artists. More than 150 artists applied to participate in this year’s exhibition, making artist selection highly competitive and ensuring an exceptional collection of original artwork.
Guests will have the opportunity to meet the artists behind the work, watch live art demonstrations, and explore a diverse selection of original pieces priced from $100 to $10,000. Whether purchasing a first piece of original art or expanding an established collection, visitors will enjoy a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere designed to make collecting art accessible and enjoyable.

The event begins with an invitation-only Private Showing on Thursday, September 17, from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The exhibition then opens to the public, free of charge, on:
Friday, September 18: 12:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Saturday, September 19: 11:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.

In addition to exceptional artwork, attendees can enjoy free parking, a variety of food trucks, and the beautiful setting of The Garden Place, making Art at The Park an ideal destination for collectors, families, and anyone looking to discover outstanding local talent.

As a program of ArtThrive, Art at The Park reflects the organization’s mission to create meaningful opportunities for Utah artists to thrive while fostering a vibrant and engaged arts community throughout the state.
Members of the public are encouraged to attend this free event, discover remarkable original artwork, and support Utah’s thriving creative community.

“We are so excited to be back for our fifth year at beautiful This Is The Place Heritage Park, where art lovers can see the amazing work of over 75 of Utah’s top fine artists, says Rob Chipman, Founder of both Art at The Park and ArtThrive. It is so satisfying to have enabled our artists to have sold well over $1 million worth of art since our founding. Now, as part of a new nonprofit organization, all of the net proceeds of the event will go towards helping local artists to flourish to an even greater degree.”

“We are thrilled to host an event that highlights such exceptional local talent,” adds Missy W. Larsen, CEO of This Is The Place Heritage Park. “For us, ‘Awaken the Pioneer Within’ isn’t just a theme—it’s a call to celebrate creativity, resilience, and community connection. Over the past five years, Art at The Park has set a standard of excellence that we are proud to foster. We invite everyone to join us, enjoy free entry to the grounds, and experience the work of some of Utah’s finest artists.”
