Olson Galleries, once located in Midway, UT, is now located in Spring City in the middle of the state. Our historical little town is known for the many artists that live here or come to town to create their art. It is peaceful, with very little traffic, and wonderful caring people. Presently there are 6 art galleries that represent various media as well as knife makers, pottery and furniture. Some are not open all of the time; however, so it's best to call first. Examples of our art shown here are difficult to see but larger views and more variety can be seen on our website: olsongalleries.com.

Our giclee prints are sold as 5x7, 8x10, 11x14, and 16x20 and are offered on handmade paper, canvas and other quality paper. Prices range from $15 to $200 for prints. Ruth also paints beautiful table art on a material to fit custom requests. This is a very unique product that is removable and can be easily stored. She also paints a play chalk mat for children which helps them to learn. Call for prices on original fine art, table art and play chalk mats.
