  • Elizabeth Malaska — 2025 Doctorow Prize winner, presenting layered, auratic paintings in the Street Gallery.

  • Kellie Bornhoft — an immersive installation in the Air Space combining sculpture, sound, and video in Touchstone.

  • Al Denyer — works on paper in the Projects Gallery exploring cartography, topographic lines, and the tension between real and altered landscapes. Denyer writes:

  • Fieldworks: Green River — a pop-up show of sculptures created by participating artists during a week of exploration and hands-on making with found and repurposed materials.

  • Expanded Cinema — Experience projections of landmark experimental films at Oscar Tuazon’s Salt Lake Water School with artist Ian Burnley, featuring works from The Film-Makers’ Cooperative. Stop by anytime between 7–8:30 pm; come and go freely.

  • Workshop Walk-In — Drop-in anytime during the opening for a hands-on all ages art activity. Walk away with an art object you’ll be proud to display on your bookshelf. Theme TBA!
