The American Fork Visual Arts Program, in partnership with American Fork City and the AF Chamber of Commerce, was excited to be able to bring the Steel Days Art Show at the American Fork Library to the people of American Fork and surrounding area. The show was a success with almost 500 entrants. The caliber of art presented was outstanding on many levels. The Adult Division presented some beautiful artworks by many talented artists on both Novice and Experienced levels. In the Youth Division, there was likewise some exceptional art presented with some very interesting and exciting art that took mediums to a new level. The American Fork Visual Arts Program was excited to be able to bring this show to the people of American Fork and surrounding area. We had a great turnout on the three days of the show. Thank you.

As far as the recognition of the artists the judges had a difficult time coming up with the winners as there were some many excellent art pieces to choose from. But they finally did and there were almost 150 awards presented on Thursday evening at the Old Historical City Hall Building. We had an excellent turnout for the event. We were honored to have Mayor Brad Frost present along with both Little Miss American Fork, Remi Tidwell, and Miss American Fork, Taylor Colby.

Again, we are grateful for all of the folks who honored us with their entrants. Thank you one and all.
