More than just your typical art gallery, the Pilar Pobil Celebration Gallery is named after world renowned Spanish born artist and Utah resident Pilar Pobil. The exhibits displayed in this gallery are curated to reflect her wish to, “provide a place for art to bring out the best in our souls.” We pride ourselves in celebrating the diversity of our community and promoting local artists as much as possible. The Pilar Pobil Celebration Gallery provides a place for the community to see and present great art, every day, for free.
The Bridge, Plaza, and Crescent Galleries house small collections of artworks by local artists, small travelling exhibitions, and educational displays. Most of this art is for sale at accessible prices.
In all our exhibition spaces, we encourage the expression of ideas, values, public education, and civic engagement. Our team works directly with artists and collectors to bring the best artwork to the local community. We use our expertise in displaying and presenting art, artifacts and information in ways that build appreciation for diversity and enrich the community.

72 Voices | 72 Votes
March 28 - May 30, 2026
72 Voices I 72 Votes tells the story of how West Valley City was born. Using ephemera, art, and artifact, the exhibit showcases the "progress as promised" of a city that almost wasn't. Incorporating in 1980 by the slimmest of margins, the story of Utah's second largest and most diverse city is an important one when considering both voices and votes.

The Joyful World of Sara Fitzgerald
March 24 - June 13, 2026
Sara created a joyful show because she has been struggling with heavy things in her own life. Recently, she became a breast cancer survivor. She knows there is also a lot of pain and suffering in the world. Creating art makes her happy, and she desires to share it with her community, spread good vibes, and remind us that our lives are not only about what happens to us, but, more importantly, about what we choose to dwell on and the actions we take. We each have the power to be kind and loving, and to make the world a better place for everyone.

Building Blocks of America
April 24 - June 24, 2026
An Exhibit by Artists from Harman Senior Recreation Center. Brought to you through generous grants from Creative Aging / Utah Division of Arts & Museums. In honor of 250 years of America, we explored the history of our nation, its journey toward becoming the United States and the many eras that have shaped it over a quarter of a millennium. We reflected on landmarks and memorials, the enduring words of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and much more. From these conversations, each artist selected one moment, place, or idea, one small “block” in the foundation of our nation, to capture in an individual painting. Together, these works create a mosaic of American history seen through many perspectives.
Plaza Boardroom
From Where We Stand
May 2 - May 29, 2026
This installation, created by Kearns High School students, centers real voices from the community. Participants of all ages responded to questions about their concerns for America and their personal experiences with immigration. Their words have been brought together into a large-scale collage, layered with wire silhouettes and fencing, reflecting both connection and division. Visitors are invited to contribute their own thoughts to the piece. Listen, reflect, and consider the range of perspectives and human experiences that exist within our community.
