Springville Museum of Art

Directions: Off of I-15 take Springville 400 N Exit and go east almost 2 miles. It is just after the stoplight in town. There is parking on the street and on the East side of the building (which is where the entryway is)
Cost: Free -
                   Donations Always Appreciated!
Museum from the Road



Outside entrance to the sculpture garden - a truly wonderful place!

Duration: As long as you like!

This activity/ place is great for art lovers, date night, people who are curious about Utah places and children.


This museum has permanent art as well as traveling exhibits. They quite often feature quilting and the amazing quilting art that is done by so many talented artists/ seamstresses. (fyi.. if you haven't tried to make a quilt you will not fully appreciate the technical aspects of quilting- it is amazingly precise, tedious, artistic, mathematical and artistic in every sense! as well as demanding immense patience)
A sculpture, some flowers and the walkway by the Museum.. its just a pretty area. The flowers are just part of the beautiful garden.. I guess you could consider them a permanent part of the exhibit.. and I just really like taking pictures of flowers.

This makes a wonderful outing, tandem picnic or brunch outing or just a relaxing personal time in the sculpture garden by the fountain (there is an indoor water feature too).

Don't go on Monday.. they are closed. (that is why all my pictures are from the outside)
