ST. GEORGE — December brings two featured artists to the Arrowhead Gallery Etc, a cooperative venture between the City of St. George and the Southern Utah Art Guild, which sits alongside the Electric Theater in the city’s Historic Downtown district.
The gallery, located at 68 E. Tabernacle St., features two Utah artists, Evalyne “Evie” Thompson Atkin and Harold Tanner, throughout the month with a featured-artist reception Dec. 16 from 6-8 p.m., which is open to the public.
Arrowhead Gallery Etc displays a variety of visual mediums – painting, photography, jewelry, ceramics and metal – from some 35-plus artists participating in the Southern Utah Art Guild. Artists can be new to their craft or accomplished professionals in keeping with the guild’s collective aim to promote the growth and development of such art in Southern Utah. More information about the endeavors of the guild, events and educational opportunities is available on the SUAG website.
