Pilar Pobil Celebration Gallery
Bridge Gallery
Crescent Gallery
Plaza Gallery
More than just your typical art gallery, the Pilar Pobil Celebration Gallery, is named after world renowned Spanish born artist and Utah resident Pilar Pobil. The exhibits displayed in this gallery are curated to reflect her wish to, “provide a place for art to bring out the best in our souls.” We pride ourselves in celebrating the diversity of our community and promoting local artists as much as possible. The Pilar Pobil Celebration Gallery provides a place for the community to see great art, and also present great art, for free.
The Bridge, Plaza, and Crescent galleries house small collections of artworks by local artists, small travelling exhibitions, and educational displays. Most of this art is for sale at accessible prices.
In all our exhibition spaces, we encourage the expression of ideas, values, public education, and civic engagement. Our team works directly with artists and collectors to bring the best artwork to the local community. We use our expertise in displaying and presenting art, artifacts and information in ways that build appreciation for diversity and enrich the community.

In Her Circle
January 16 - June 6, 2025
How does one express a group of artists connected to a central person? Nine of the ten women in this exhibit have been associated with the tenth central person by her invitation and sense of community. Some have known her many years – one, her entire life – while others have known her just a short while. Welcome to “In Her Circle,” a collection of work not beholden to time, location, or particulars. This exhibit has been pre-curated, so to speak, by the banding and bonding of artists within the “inner” circle “In Her” circle. From a broader perspective, all the art has been created by females at various stages of life and career. Observers experience art through the lens — or circle — of each artist as they move from piece to piece. Dissimilarities in subject matter, style, and media suggest a cooperative mosaic composed with camaraderie and purpose.

Box & Litho
March 7 - April 23, 2025
This Box & Litho show consists of many of the surreal works of a pair of artists (father and son) who can’t help overlapping in their art making habits. They have a mutual penchant for complexities of drawing, assemblage, and collage which are derivatives of their hand-printed lithographic images. The artists want viewers to discover the many modular images and icons. Meaning can be gleaned from reflecting on the combination of images and objects or simply enjoy the formal qualities.
Replenish: An Exhibit of Art and Action for Great Salt Lake
March 5 - April 9, 2025
Crescent Gallery
Join Grow the Flow and Making Waves at the Utah Cultural Celebration Center to engage in an evening of art in celebration of Great Salt Lake. The evening will begin with a free art build, open to the public where we will be making origami pelicans and brine shrimp finger puppets. Afterwards we will enjoy live music from Michael Louis Austin, refreshments, a silent auction, and a gallery of art works that were so kindly donated to us by local artists. Each of these artworks are currently on display in the Crescent Gallery and are available to bid on the auction website through April 10th.

Mi Vida - My Art
Art by Pilar Pobil.
When you grow up seeing art everywhere, on the outsides and insides of public buildings and in homes, it will get into your subconscious and pop out unexpectedly. In Spain we are challenged by what we see and the light and color in landscapes…(click to read more)
