St. George, Utah — Arts to Zion is pleased to announce the 2026 St. George Cultural Tour, a two-day immersive experience highlighting the region’s vibrant arts community and rich pioneer history. Presented in collaboration with the Washington County Historical Society, this year’s event expands to include guided historical tours alongside artist studio visits, galleries, museums, and public cultural sites.
The St. George Cultural Tour will take place on Friday, January 16, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Saturday, January 17, 2026 — 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
The tour invites visitors to explore the deep connection between local artists and the stories that shaped Washington County. Participants will encounter working home studios, historic districts, galleries, and museums that illuminate the region’s creative and cultural evolution—from early settlement to today’s thriving arts scene.
Tickets are required only for the Home Studio Tour, where guests can step inside private creative spaces, meet artists one-on-one, and experience the artistic process up close. All other components of the Cultural Tour—including galleries, museums, public art locations, and historical sites—are free and open to the public.
This year’s event aligns with St. George Heritage Day on Saturday, January 17, creating a decisive moment where past and present meet. In celebration, Arts to Zion will host live music and appetizers at select downtown public locations to enhance the festive atmosphere of the day’s historical tours and cultural offerings. The Washington County Historical Society will lead special tours throughout the weekend, offering visitors a deeper understanding of the people, places, and stories that shaped Southern Utah.
“St. George has a cultural heartbeat that blends art, history, and landscape in a way that’s unlike anywhere else,” said Bobbi Wan‑kier, Founder and Executive Director of Arts to Zion. “This tour gives visitors a chance to feel that connection firsthand—whether they’re meeting an artist in their studio, walking through a historic neighborhood on a tour, or just enjoying live music during Heritage Day.”
