2014 Utah Arts Festival: Sunday 06.29
My last hour at the festival, I stopped looking at the individual mechanisms, but instead watched, in silent reflection of what the Utah Arts Festival has provided as a whole for its artists and attendees.

2014 Utah Arts Festival: Sunday 06.29 with Zodiac Empire, Watches,...
This year’s Utah Arts Festival was rad!!! No, it really was. After skipping out on the last few years to do absolutely nothing I finally decided to check it out again when the opportunity came up for this assignment.

Aside from music, the 6+ stages offered everything from local comedy shows to beatboxing to children’s theatre. … read more

Saturday felt as though all of Utah had done just that. … read more

2014 Utah Arts Festival: Friday 06.27
The perfect sunny weather warmed my skin as I chowed down on a burger and fresh cut fries from Scrumptious. I don’t think summer had started until that moment. This is the magic of the Utah Arts Festival, the ultimate curation of visual and performance arts that, for me, inspires for the summer months to follow. … read more
Fear No Film: Global Boundaries
The selections for this year’s Fear No Film festival have been eye-opening, to say the least. It’s nice to know that we still live in a world where boundaries are constantly being challenged and redefined, and even nicer to know that we have a local presence who believes it’s important to share these messages with our community. … read more
