What we Offer the Community

The Timpanogos Visual Arts Program (TVA) endeavors to bring these various art forms to the community through classes, workshops, gallery events and exhibitions.

We offer fine art classes to all age groups at our TAF Creative Arts Center – Art Gallery at 53 West Main Street in American Fork. They are taught by professional artists in a variety of mediums such as watercolor, oils, acrylic, colored pencils, graphite pencil, clay, calligraphy, graphic design, illustration and much more.

Artist Showcases

We are also involved in presenting a variety of venues where you can showcase your own art work. TAF and TVA present the annual Americana Arts & Music Festival in American Fork (for more information, click here). Artists come from near and far to display and sell their artwork under the shaded booths. If you’d like to register for a booth for your art, stay tuned, registration will start soon!

We host the Steel Days Art Show in the American Fork Library every year in July as part of American Fork City’s Steel Days celebration. This show is for both adult and youth artists.

And lastly, we host the Christmas in the Rotunda Art Show for youth (1st through 12th grades) and adults each year in December at the AF Library.

History

The Visual Arts Group began in American Fork in the early 1940’s when a group of men and women, who loved to draw and paint, met and decided to work together and share their talents, knowledge and experiences. The group was very diligent in staying together over the years and was always anxious to help the community develop their talents and enjoy the visual arts.
