Utah Women Artists Exhibition, Entries and Information

This event brings together varied and interesting works of Utah Women Artists from the entire state. The 2016 Exhibition featured 76 works from 56 artists, beautifully displayed at the Utah Cultural Celebration Center, 1355 W 3100 S, West Valley City, Utah.

The Utah Women Artist Exhibition was conceived in 1981 with the first exhibition held in 1982, when a Trust was established and 400 entries were received with only display space for 30.

The 2018 exhibition will be the fifth to be held at the Utah Cultural Celebration Center. The Trustees received donations from AAUW members, and grants from the Zoo Arts and Parks of Salt Lake County, and the Utah Division of Arts & Museums. Several family trusts have established and funded named awards.

The art works are beautiful, unique, interesting, creative, whimsical, in varied mediums, and all are from Utah women artists.  Many artists from previous exhibitions have expressed their appreciation for this opportunity to have their works in an all women exhibition at such a lovely venue.

At the opening reception artists, AAUW members, patrons, and other art lovers, mingle, view and enjoy the winning art and honor the winning artist as they receive their cash prizes.

Some of the wonderful non-winning entrants are shown on this page. To see the award winners and other works from the last two shows check out the Exhibition’s Facebook Page.
