Opening reception for "The Wildness of Nature," paintings and prints by Jerry Clifford. Art Exhibit runs Jan 17–Mar 27, 2024.

ARTIST STATEMENT:

As a landscape painter hedged between Utah's Uinta Mountains and the Wasatch Back, Jerry Clifford paints the mood and spirit of the Kamas Valley. "My paintings are observations of the natural beast, the world outside my studio.”

ARTIST BIO:

Jerry was raised in the land of Ernest Hemingway; and found the groundwork for his infatuation with the natural world while wandering the deep forests and hidden lakes of Northwest Michigan. Jerry completed a B.A. in 1977 from Western Colorado University and pursued a Master of Fine Arts from the University Michigan and the University of Denver. During the early eighties, he traveled to Europe to study the paintings of the masters.

Parenting and painting became Jerry's raison d'être after returning to the timberlands of Michigan. Jerry, and wife Kathy, moved to the high desert of Western Colorado in fall of 2005. He engaged with the artistic community of Grand Junction, Colorado as a member of the Art Center of Western Colorado. Retiring in 2019, Jerry and Kathy moved to Kamas, Utah to be with family. He set up a studio and is currently investigating the new topography of the Kamas valley. Jerry's painting is entering a new phase of articulation while concentrating on his new Acrylic Aquarelle paintings.

About the branch

This beautiful facility was designed to complement the Rose Park neighborhood with sensitivity to its site on the Jordan River Parkway. An open space plan, with a large community meeting room and outside deck area, will accommodate this growing community for many years.

The south property of the Day-Riverside Branch is home to TreeUtah's EcoGarden, a "food forest" where all members of the community can learn about urban farming and organic gardening. The Day-Riverside Branch has a meeting room available for public use that features tables, chairs, a projector screen, and a piano.

Free parking is available to the west of the building, and free wi-fi access is provided throughout the library.
