    LAWN GNOMES EAT YOUR HEARTS OUT Salt Lake's Community Yard Art Extravaganza. 2,000 PRIZE. Registered participating artists will be automatically entered into a juried competition. The winning artist will receive a cash prize of $2000.00 and their winning work will be featured prominently on the Art Center's webpage and announced on Facebook  There are many unsung heroes of public art right here in Salt Lake City-and we'd like to give you a chance to shineResidents of Salt Lake City and its immediate environs are invited to participate in the first annual Lawn Gnomes Eat Your Hearts Out lawn sculpture competition and extravaganza, hosted by the 337 Project and Salt Lake Art Center! This is a chance to shine for artists who want to show off their innovation, skill, and quirkiness in the creation of our community's best lawn sculpture!!!  This Spring, Salt Lake Art Center will exhibit the sculptural exhibition, Expanded Field: Recipients of the 2011 International Sculpture Center Awards. But we don't want the fun to stay inside our galleries. So Lawn Gnomes is your chance to bring art outside the walls of the Art Center and into the places where people work, live, and play, encouraging everyone to think about new ways to actively engage with our city and neighborhoods. Salt Lake Art Center will present maps, Guide by Cell, and tours in a variety of formats that lead residents from the Art Center's formal galleries into the reimagined urban space created by artists participating in Lawn Gnomes Eat Your Hearts Out.
