Art Exhibit reception for "Art at the Main," a group show featuring artists from the Art at the Main cooperative. Exhibit runs March 14–April 24 at the Anderson-Foothill Branch.
Artists' Statement
We are an artists’ cooperative gallery, located on the ground floor of the Main Library. Our mission is to promote public interest in high quality, original artwork while providing Utah artists, who do not already have an established exhibition venue, with an audience and an opportunity to sell their work. The co-op also supports and provides art educational programs for the public.
Artists' Bio
Art at the Main exhibits original artwork in these media: mixed media, watercolor, oil, acrylic, pastel, pen & ink, pencil, charcoal, encaustic, etchings, monotypes, lithography, hangable fiber art, and small 3-D sculpture, glasswork, pottery, metal and wood.
We currently have 17 artists participating and showing their work at our gallery. We have participated, as a group, in art exhibits at several venues in Salt Lake City over the past 17 years.

The pleasing design of the Anderson-Foothill Branch has two unique elements as part of its plan. The first is a passive solar energy design that includes earth berming, window placement for solar heating, and zone supplemental heating/cooling. The second element of this 14,900 square foot community library built in 1985, expanded in 1992 and in 2002, is a modular design.
The Anderson-Foothill Branch has a meeting room available for public use with tables, chairs, and a projector screen. The Anderson-Foothill Branch's outdoor amphitheater is a popular location for summer concerts. Free parking is available to the north and south of the building, and free wi-fi access is provided throughout the library.
