Kayenta Art Village
The hamlet of Kayenta, home to the renowned Kayenta Art Village, is located seven miles north of St. George, close to Ivins, Utah, nestled against the Red Mountain in true red rock country. The area is quiet but not remote. This neighborhood is known for its thoughtful development and use of regional resources, including pottery lessons that use the famous red clay from the area. Many see Kayenta as a sort of artist colony, similar to Marfa, Texas, or Paonia, Colorado.
The Kayenta Village is a center of cultural and social activity for both locals and visitors because there are so many things to see and do there. There are many galleries and artist studios, and if you're a fan of art, nothing is more exciting than meeting artists and seeing them work in their studios. You can also enroll in a pottery or painting workshop, take part in year-round special events, and attend concerts. You can get a cup of coffee or something to eat at the Xetava Gardens Café, or you can visit the Sacred Space Spa to rest after a strenuous day of climbing.

The art village offers interactive opportunities in addition to art and jewelry galleries. After a long day of touring, take a stroll around the Desert Rose Labyrinth and Sculpture Garden for some strolling meditation, or visit the Kayenta Desert Arboretum to learn about Southern Utah's native plants. Families can take a painting class together at The Blue Raven Art Studio or book a private lesson with a skilled art instructor. The Cabaret Theatre, an outdoor venue with a variety of performances — music, theater, lectures — adds to the exceptionally family-friendly atmosphere of this neighborhood and is another local favorite in the Art Village.
