Park City boasts a new
treasure trove that is catching
the attention of art seekers
from around the world. From
historic silver mining roots
to an Olympic celebration,
the city’s economic growth
is garnering international
exposure for Park City’s art
scene. Local and contributing
artists benefit from the access
to this burgeoning market
all the while boosting Utah’s
unique artistic contributions.
The Park City Gallery
Association, made of 18
galleries, from traditional
to pop-up spaces, presents
a wide variety of artwork
that is both accessible and
thought provoking in an
amazing setting nestled in
the Wasatch Mountains.
“Always considered one
of the leading destinations
for outdoor enthusiasts, Park
City has become known for its
rich arts and culture scene as

well,” says Jen Schumacher,
owner of TROVE Gallery
and president of the gallery
association. “Art lovers would
be hard-pressed not to find
pieces from the many varied
galleries that they wouldn't
want to take home with them.”
The monthly Last Friday
Gallery Stroll is a free
community event giving
locals and Park City visitors
alike the opportunity to
enjoy light refreshments

while exploring the gallery
scene. Held from 6 to 9
p.m. on the last Friday of
each month, the stroll sees
members of the Park City
Gallery Association offering
artist showcases, special
exhibitions and art events.
Other events that the
gallery association has
partnered with include the
Park City Wine Festival,
which will next take place
October 1 to 4. As part of

the event is the Walk of
Wine, happening October 2
with galleries hosting wine,
beer and spirit tastings. The
Kimball Art Center will host
the 51st annual Kimball Arts
Festival on Main Street, July
31 through August 2, and the
final stage of the seven-day
Tour of Utah cycling race
begins and ends on Park
City’s Main Street amidst the
galleries.
