The first juried Utah Women Artists Exhibition was created in 1982 by the American Association of University Women (AAUW) of Utah to address the lack of exhibit and sale opportunities for Utah women artists.  At that time all art pieces were carried in to be juried and devoted AAUW members drove the pieces to several locations around Utah to be exhibited for viewing in the local communities.  In 2022 the entry, jury selection, and award selection processes are all online at Artcall.org.
