A small sampling of our passion for art and community
ART SCHOLAR COMPETITION
For many years DVAF has sponsored yearly Art Scholar competitions for local high school seniors. Awards range from $100.00 to $1,000!
Art collection
DVAF has started a Community Art Collection which is housed in several of our local schools and in Draper City Hall.
Portrait of Orrin Porter Rockwell & draper mural
Draper Visual Arts Foundation commissioned a painting of Orrin Porter Rockwell to be presented when the Rockwell Trail was dedicated. This was done by Ken Corbett. We also commissioned a large mural showing early Draper, Utah which is located in Draper City Hall. This painting was done by Linda Curley Christensen.
Sharing the art
We sell prints of Ichabod Crane, Orrin Porter Rockwell, Draper Vista and the Old Church & Roundhouse to provide needed funding. Check out our Prints For Sale page!
Draper Cultural Center
Draper has reached a size that we think merits a Cultural Arts Center. We are trying to make this a reality. Plans have been made by Design West. Can you help us?
HISTORICAL MURAL RESTORATION
We helped Draper Historical Society and Draper City pay for the removal of an historical mural from the wall in the old Draper Park School and its restoration. It was restored and mounted on a wall in Corner Canyon High School. An unfinished section was completed by DVAF Board Member Layne Brady. Restoration work and placement on the wall was taken care of by restoration specialist Dale Jolley.
