CREATE PC

The Arts Council of Park City & Summit County facilitates two floors of opportunities for local Summit County artists, an artist studio space and a gallery exhibition space. Applications for the CREATE PC exhibit running from June to November are being accepted until June 5.

CREATE PC programs run year-round, offering multiple opportunities for local artists and makers to exhibit their work. The CREATE PC Gallery will be creatively activated through rotating exhibits, open studio nights, and gallery stroll events. Local artists and makers will have the opportunity to sell artwork and creative goods at CREATE PC, with options to apply to future shows and opportunities.
