The UA&M Public Art team was delighted to observe the installation of Jann Haworth’s Utah Women mural at Salt Lake Community College South Campus last week! This piece includes over 200 stencil portraits, each created by community members under the direction of Jann Haworth, Liberty Blake, and their project team. The featured portraits range from some of the most high-profile women in Utah history to community members whose impact might be less known but nevertheless remarkable.

Utah Women is on display now, and we encourage you to go check it out!
