Utah Arts Festival

What started out as the Salt Lake Festival of the Arts for three days in June of 1976 featuring 55 visual artists, 43 performing arts groups and 8 food artists on a three block section of Main Street has blossomed into a 4 day event, featuring over 130 visual artists, more than 100 performing arts groups, 18 plus culinary artists and drawing 80,000 patrons each June at Library and Washington Squares. The Utah Arts Festival is the largest outdoor multi-disciplined event in Utah. Having garnered numerous awards internationally, nationally and locally, the event remains one of the premiere events that kick off the summer in Utah each June.

    My husband and I go every year, every day, all day/night. There is something for everybody and the setting is absolutely the best! I've grown to look forward to the Big Mouth Cafe and Fear No Film! The art is so varied and wonderful. I love all of the "yard art." The musical groups are superb. The food....the FOOD!! What can I say? Hygynks (hope I spelled it correctly) sometimes makes several sets of their "rhythm sticks" available to practice with. We love bringing our visitors from out of state. The main library plaza spectaculars are really something to look forward to. Be sure to stop at the Mad Hatters and create a spectacle of your own to wear! Last year the Writing Center featured 9 different Storytellers and other inspiring performing artists too. We look forward to attending and being surprised by something new and spectacular each year! Thanks to everyone who participates and to those who are responsible for this event happening! Collapse
