Alfred Lambourne Arts Program Exhibition

The Alfred Lambourne Arts Program Exhibition is showing at the Sorensen Unity Center in Salt Lake City through November 13, 2026. It opened on August 28, so you've got a good window to catch it if you're around this fall. The show brings together work by Utah artists inspired by the Great Salt Lake, all produced through the Alfred Lambourne Arts Program.

That program is run by Friends of the Great Salt Lake, and it's an annual thing meant to build community, connection, and awareness around the lake. Every year, submissions open from April through July, and the resulting exhibit opens in August. The whole thing is named for Alfred Lambourne, who died in 1926 and spent his time painting landscapes of the lake across its different seasons. It's a nice tie-back: the program keeps that tradition of looking at the lake going, and this exhibition is the result of this year's cycle.

Since the work comes from artists across the state, you'll see a variety of ways people are interpreting the same landscape. The Great Salt Lake changes so much depending on where you're standing and what time of year it is, and that's exactly what Lambourne spent his life painting. This show lets you see how a new group of Utah artists is taking a crack at it.

You can find the exhibition in the Sorensen Unity Center's art gallery at 1383 S. 900 West in Salt Lake City. It runs through November 13, so there's plenty of time to stop by.
