Zion selects Artists in Residence for 2024
SPRINGDALE, Utah – Zion National Park in partnership with our non-profit partner, Zion Forever Project, has selected three artists to participate in the 2024 Artist-in-Residence program.
In 2024, Zion will host:

- Simon Arizpe, illustrator and paper engineer, mid-October to mid-Nov 2023.
About the Zion Artist-in-Residence Program
Since the program’s inception, the park has hosted poets, dancers, musicians, painters, photographers, and other artists from across the United States. Zion provides housing for a one-month, highly independent residency. Resident artists will:
- Present two public programs tailored to their medium, interest, experience, and audience.
- Host periodic, open studio hours to interact with visitors.
- Submit an original piece of work within six months of leaving Zion.
Art pieces may be placed in the park‘s permanent museum, interpretive collections or, in partnership with the Zion National Park Forever Project, may be used to support the Artist in Residence Program financially.
This art helps visitors understand and appreciate Zion and reflects the National Park Service’s mission to conserve the park’s landscapes, plants, animals, and history.
