Ephemeral: Art Show Featuring Utah's Native Plants

"Ephemeral" is a juried art exhibition celebrating the beauty, resilience, and ecological importance of Utah’s native plants. Presented by Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter in partnership with the Utah Native Plant Society, the exhibition features works by local artists inspired by the native wildflowers, shrubs, grasses, and trees that define Utah’s diverse landscapes.
Through a variety of artistic mediums, this exhibition invites visitors to explore the fleeting yet vital nature of native plant communities and consider their role in supporting wildlife, sustaining ecosystems, and connecting people to place. Together, these artworks offer both a celebration of Utah’s botanical diversity and a reminder of the importance of conservation in a changing world.
