Today was the second of our two critical sessions. Artists, directors, curators and thinkers from across Utah gathered to discuss art criticism; leveraging the vitality and uniqueness of Utah's art communities to both export, and import, dialog and art to and from the state; and how to work together to make Utah a center for contemporary art production in the United States. 

What was most striking, was that every element of what is needed to bring these aims to fruition, was embodied, and practiced, by the people in that room. Thank you to all who came.
