In 2019, the Brigham City Museum of Art & History launched a joint competition and exhibition to honor the 60th anniversary of the Utah Designer Craft Alliance. The enthusiasm from artists and visitors alike inspired us to build on that idea and start a new tradition of showcasing talented Utah Design Crafts Artists. As with last year, artists will submit works composed of wood, fiber, glass, clay, metal, stone, or any mix of these media. The exhibition closes on Saturday, January 16, 2021
