Rio Gallery
Located in the grand lobby of the old Rio Grande Depot, the Rio Gallery was established as a service to Utah artists, providing a free venue for emerging as well as established artists to gather and educate the community through their artwork.

Untitled. Our 4th Biannual Exhibit!
What is in a name? When you approach a painting in a museum or gallery is reading the title one of the first things you do? Does that affect your perception of the piece? How necessary is a title when it comes to art? Many artists find it a bother and use the default “Untitled” when it comes time to label their work. Perhaps they want the work to speak for itself and let the viewer decide what it means to them.
This year's Untitled Exhibit was curated by Namon Bills and features 30 Utah artists with works that need titles and we want YOUR help. The public reception is on April 20th from 6-9 PM in conjunction with Gallery Stroll, but the show opens on April 6th. Come down to the Rio and give us your suggestions for titles for these pieces.
