Community Artist Program

The Community Artist in the Parks program was created in 2009 as a way to highlight the connection between local artists and the landscapes contained within the National Park Service Southeast Utah Group (SEUG): Arches and Canyonlands National Parks and Hovenweep and Natural Bridges National Monuments. 

The program gives visitors from across the globe an opportunity to see first-hand the results of artistic inspiration from wild nature. It provides local artists an ability to teach and demonstrate their medium and passion for creative expression.

Did You Know?

Collared Lizard

Lizards, including the colorful collared lizard, are one of the most frequently seen animals at Arches. When not chasing flies or basking in the sun, they are often seen doing what appears to be push-ups. This odd dance might enhance their stereoscopic vision, helping them see what's looking back at them.
