The Southern Utah Art Guild is hosting a series of free public events in St. George this May, including gallery openings at Arrowhead Gallery and Red Cliff Gallery. Arrowhead Gallery will hold an open house on May 6 featuring a live demonstration by landscape painter Marilyn Rose, a 10% discount on artwork, and opportunity drawings. Red Cliff Gallery launches its “Explosion of Color” exhibit on May 8, showcasing vibrant works from contemporary Guild artists through June 18. Additional community events include CONNECT, a critique session sponsored by the Utah Arts Alliance on May 28, and MEET + MINGLE, a networking gathering on May 12.
These events matter because they highlight the Guild's ongoing efforts to make local art accessible and support artist development in Southern Utah. Arrowhead Gallery, which recently won a Silver Award for Best Art Gallery in Southern Utah in 2026, serves as a key venue for regional artists, blending emerging and established talent. The programming emphasizes community engagement, offering free opportunities for the public to discover and purchase original artwork while fostering creative exchange among artists.
