Visit Salt Lake

Salt Lake is the place where the Wasatch mountain peaks frame city streets. Sure, Salt Lake's famed for our winter powder ([four legendary ski resorts](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/skiing-snowboarding/) just 30 minutes from downtown), but that's just one season's story. Summer brings families [hiking through wildflower meadows](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/) before cooling off at a Jazz game or the Gateway fountains. Autumn paints our mountain canyons in gold, perfect for morning strolls that end at local coffee shops. Spring? That's when you might spot baby bison on Antelope Island before heading to the Eccles Theater for a Broadway show. Our soaring Wasatch Mountains rise dramatically from downtown Salt Lake, creating a place where every day offers both natural wonders and urban energy. And while we sit perfectly between the [national parks](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/state-national-parks/) with Yellowstone's geysers and Utah's red rock country, the real magic happens right here, where everyone can [discover the history](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/plan-your-visit/about-salt-lake/) of the city as they find their own rhythm between mountain adventure and city life.

Sports Salt Lake

We're proud to welcome Geoffrey Gersten to Gallery MAR for his first show with us. His studio smells like oil paint and nostalgia. Matchbooks, bottle caps, vintage toys, and torn advertising ephemera line every surface, remnants of a mid-20th-century world that most people have forgotten and Gersten refuses to let go.  
  
Working in oil on large-format canvases, he elevates these once-ordinary objects to something close to monumental, rendering them with a precision that borders on photorealistic. Step forward and the paint asserts itself as unmistakably made by hand.  
  
It's a tightrope Gersten walks with confidence: classical technique in service of deeply personal subject matter. “New Works” brings together his latest paintings, each one a celebration of life's timeless pleasures and treasures, rendered with an ever-fresh spirit that makes the past feel startlingly alive.  
  
Join us November 27th from 6–9 PM to experience new works by Geoffrey Gersten at Gallery MAR, Park City.
