Ogden 1st Friday Art Stroll

Art Gallery Stroll, Ogden, Utah, Historic Main Street, Art Exhibits, Live Music

Ogden’s First Friday Art Stroll is abuzz year-round with exciting exhibit openings, artist receptions, and live music of all genres in venues and in the streets.

The heart of Ogden is found in its rich cultural heritage and in its art. The face of the arts within this community is constantly evolving. This fact is evidenced through its many gallery exhibits, literary offerings, innumerable scheduled and impromptu live art performances, a growing collection of public art, and a variety of cultural film and arts festivals and markets.

Africa: Arts of a Continent

Sarcophagus, Utah Museum of Fine Arts, Africa: Arts of a Continent, Salt Lake City, utah,

This ambitious exhibition of African art objects drawn from the UMFA’s permanent collection centers on themes of the spirit world and the afterlife.

Africa: Arts of a Continent explores the spiritual and political power of Central African masks, the magic and mystery of ancestral African sculptures, and the enduring beauty of African objects used in everyday life. The installation debuts one of the UMFA’s newest acquisitions: a late XXVIth Dynasty Egyptian sarcophagus.
