Exhibitions | Classes | Music | Summerfest | Gift ShopStanding in BDAC's main gallery at 90 North Main Street, it can be hard to fathom how much this art center has developed in 40+ years. By 1974, the growing Davis County community developed a need for a local art center. That need was met as Bountiful City and the University of Utah collaborated to establish the Bountiful Davis Art Center. In 1984 BDAC became its own nonprofit organization. Three location moves later, in 2015, the BDAC found its permanent home on Main Street in Bountiful City, the art center's largest supporter.BDAC's Mission statement is to engage the community through quality artistic and cultural programs, provide educational experiences, and encourage the growth and expression of art. The art center achieves its mission via unique programming and events. (i.e. free-to-the-public art exhibitions featuring the finest artists in Utah, professionally taught art and theater classes for children and adults, free Family Art Nights held monthly every 3rd Monday 6:30-8:00 PM, affordable recital space featuring the only dual-piano stage in Davis County, and free musical concerts and events including the area's largest folk arts festival, Summerfest.)Summerfest International Art & Folk Festival engages the community in a multicultural celebration. This free event is held the first week in August at Bountiful City Park. Hundreds of visitors flock to its evening kickoff party, Street Dance, on Main Street. Here they enjoy sampling tasty international food and meeting traditional folk performers from all over the world. Thousands more head to Bountiful Park to experience live music and dance performances, ethnic food trucks, artist booths, and fun! BDAC's three galleries boast fine art exhibitions which are switched out every six weeks and draw visitors from throughout the state. BDAC's exhibitions are free to the public and open Tues-Fri 10-6/Sat 12-5
