The Utah All-State High School Art Show was established in 1971 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 over 1,000 entries from around the state to select the works of art featured in this exhibition. Comprised of hundreds of artworks from 105 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.

The Moab Museum is pleased to highlight the annual Delicate Stitchers Quilt Show during the August Art Walk, along with an opportunity for visitors to share their stories with the Community Artist in the Parks. 

The Delicate Stitchers Quilt Guild presents its twenty-third annual themed challenge show at the Moab Museum during the months of July and August. 

 

This year’s theme, Seasons, gives Guild members the opportunity to interpret the theme, whether they are calendar or personal seasons. A variety of techniques and styles have been used, which oftentimes shows the personalities of the participants. Viewers are invited to vote for their favorite quilts and visit with quilters during the August Art Walk.

Additionally, attendees may further connect with the theme of “seasons” by sharing a story related to seasons and plants with Annie Dalton, currently the Community Artist in the Park serving the four parks in the National Park Service’s Southeast Utah Group. Annie is gathering stories related to native plants, their uses, and any seasonal traditions you have using them as part of her creative work within the parks. If you have any stories to share, please - pull up a chair and join Annie at the Museum during Art Walk to record a story.

Throughout his life Whit Richardson has been drawn to wild and dramatic landscapes. Growing up in Boulder, Colorado allowed him access to the outdoors from an early age. He started skiing at 5 years old and took up rock climbing before he could drive a car. In 1990 he spent 3 months in Nepal where his interest in photography began to take hold. Shortly afterwards Whit moved to Telluride and started shooting photos of the adventures and landscapes he was immersed in. Before long he was contributing to many of the well-known outdoor magazines and gear companies.

 

After switching to digital in 2005 Whit started shooting properties for realtors, architects, and builders, and continues to do so today. But throughout all the years perhaps his favorite subjects have been the landscapes of the Southwest from the mountains of Colorado to the slot canyons of Arizona. He currently resides in Moab.

Whit will be onsite at Summit Sotheby's Moab during the August ArtWalk. Come visit!

Touch The Earth: Visions of a Changing World by Reed Murry will be on display in the Moab Arts Foyer Gallery for the August ArtWalk and throughout the month.

Artist Statement:

In “Touch The Earth” I explore the relationship between humanity and the natural world. I look at the past and present and how they form our future. The name of this show was inspired by a moving book of the same name by T.C. McLuhan. By imitating beauty and vulnerability, I try to ask the question—How have we influenced nature and how has it influenced us?

 

Artist Bio: 

I started painting in April of 2020 during the COVID pandemic. Most of my life I lived in South Dakota but I moved to Moab six years ago. During that time I changed dramatically. My life has been greatly influenced by the natural world and the change it has undergone. Art has given me a way to visualize my world view and to express myself. My time is spent on the river, backpacking, climbing, playing music, and exploring canyon country with my dog Yuni.
