BLOOM | Community Art Show
As desert dwellers, we know how special the first fiery Paintbrush of the season is. However, BLOOM means much more than spring wildflowers; think of algae spreading their tendrils across lakes, the expanding resonance of a plucked mandolin string, having a mid-life glow-up, or mold growth on kitchen counter tomatoes. BLOOM-ing is expansion; ecologically, personally, tonally, visually, and seasonally.
This group show includes work from over 20 different local artists showcasing a wide range of mediums and styles of work that ties to the theme of BLOOM.
What is BLOOMING to you/in you? We invite you to draw your answer in chalk on the sidewalk outside the MARC during ArtWalk!
Games We Play | UAM Traveling Exhibition
There are games all around us. Utah artists present an entertaining and thought-provoking look at how everyone might be a player in the games around us.
How do we define ourselves by what we wear? How do the decisions of political power players affect us? How do we interpret what animals may be communicating to us? How do new perspectives form by redefining the shapes around us? There are endless opportunities to interpret our world and be a player in the game.
Artists Camille Wheatley, Christina Stanley, Jessica Rasmussen, Krysta Dimick, Linnie Brown, Rebecca Klundt, Susan Riedley, Yuonne Krause, Cheryl Walden, and Pam Beach use different mediums, styles, and concepts to explore the impact games have on society. Connected by a shared love of creating art, these Utah artists use visual cues to interpret gameplay by drawing on their life experiences and backgrounds in psychology, graphic design, architecture, writing, producing, and teaching.
Join the game. Dare to be a game-changer.
U92: Moab's Uranium Legacy
Closing Early, at 7 p.m. April 4
Canyon Country Geology in a Bottle
Participants will learn about regional geology while making sand art souvenirs! Using Moab’s famous red (and yellow and green) rock landscape as inspiration, practice your stratigraphy and layer local sands in a teeny tiny bottle to take home. While you’re here, check out our newest exhibition, U92: Moab’s Uranium Legacy, and learn how prospectors explored these rocks to find deposits of our “miraculous mineral.”
The Moab Museum will be open from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. ArtWalk programming to be followed by the not-to-be-missed performance by Clay Jenkinson of J. Robert Oppenheimer at Historic Star Hall, 7:00pm. His performance will explore Oppenheimer’s role in developing the atomic bomb, followed by an interactive discussion on preventing future global conflicts.

Sawyer Nunley
My name is Sawyer, and I am a videographer and photographer from SLC.
My family has attended Easter Jeep Safari since I was 8, and that's when I fell in love with Moab. I brought my camera each year and took photos of the trails and Jeeps.
I bought my first drone and video camera in high school and began filming everything I could. During college, I studied GIS to learn about the environment while working as the BYU engineering videographer, refining my video skills.
Shortly after graduation, my family started Moab Homegrown, a small farm in Spanish Valley. When I'm not filming videos or taking photos, I help out on the farm. You can find me at the Arts and Ag Market each month!
I do freelance videography, specializing in FPV drones and nature video. I also have a YouTube channel where I share my work and adventures.
