In partnership with The Utah Arts Festival, Salt Lake City Public Library presents The All-State Utah High School Art Exhibition, part of the Utah Arts & Museums’ Traveling Exhibition Program. The exhibit features the award-winning artwork by students participating in the 2020-2022 All-State High School Show.

The All-State Utah High School Art Show was established to honor the best high school artists in the state for their talent, creativity, and dedication. The purpose of this exhibition is to foster original visual art among Utah teenagers by providing a professional forum for student artists. This exhibition is the result of an ongoing collaboration between the Springville Museum of Art, high school teachers, students, and various private partners. A panel of professional artists and arts administrators carefully studied each of the entries from around the state to select the works of art featured in this exhibition. Comprising of 345 works from 98 high schools across Utah, this exhibition represents the promise of this young generation of artists.

The works selected for the traveling exhibition illustrate the exceptional talent, diversity, originality, and creativity of Utah’s young visual artists. The exhibition is also a tribute to the art teachers in Utah’s high schools who inspire, direct and refine the work of these artists.
