Since its founding in 1980, the St. George Art Festival has become one of the largest and most celebrated gatherings of artists in Utah. Each year, it brings together more than 180 juried artists from across the United States, along with tens of thousands of visitors who come to experience this vibrant showcase of creativity. Held annually over Easter weekend, the festival draws more than 30,000 attendees to the scenic town of St. George.
