Three-Mile Radius


Painting by Jacqui Larsen

Three-Mile Radius, an exhibition featuring the art of Jacqui Larsen and the poetry of her husband, Utah Poet Laureate Lance Larsen, documents the people, places and things of Springville, Utah. Jacqui and Lance worked with only one rule: that their inspiration must come from what they find in the three mile radius that surrounds Jacqui’s studio. Their finds include everything from scrubby deer and cemetery angels, to old marquee signs and a hut from the Topaz internment camp. In this show of poetry and paint, Jacqui and Lance sing this town of many waters.

Featuring visual artists exclusively from Springville and Mapleton, "Glimpses of Springville" looks locally to celebrate the artists in our “three mile radius.” This exhibition will include works that reflect the various artists’ experiences living and working in the Springville community. From the perspective of over 30 local sculptors, painters, and photographers this exhibition will celebrate our community and its role as Utah’s “Art City.”
