The Leonardo Named Best Gallery Or Museum In Utah By American Art Awards
Each year the American Art Awards board selects the 25 Best Galleries And Museums In America.
HighlightHollywood.com reported in 2016: “The impressive AAA board chooses only one museum or gallery per state per year. Their selections are based on years established, industry reputation, online buzz, location, size, socially relevant exhibits, motivational and educational programs, represented artists as well as artist, client and visitor references.”
American Art Awards: “We consider thousands of the most established art venues from Alaska to Florida. This year we chose several museums and art centers with historical significance of 100+ years, some with over 100,000 annual visitors, some specializing in global acquisitions, some American treasures, others offering objects preserving their state’s legacy, and some celebrating one specific artist’s life work. We’ve also selected some of the most reputable art galleries; some which offer every style of international art, others exhibiting works from one region or one genre. A Native-American and an African-American facility are included in our Top 25, as well as a long-standing women’s design institution, a popular Boston sculptor’s co-op, and a Hollywood Warhol hot spot.”
The Leonardo won the distinction of Best Gallery Or Museum In Utah, 2018, and one of American Art Awards 25 Best American Galleries / Museums, 2018.
American Art Awards: “Utah’s tribute to Leonardo da Vinci expertly conveys his talents as artist, engineer, scientist, architect, musician and humanitarian. This reality-meets- fantasy world embodies the spirit of perhaps the most admired Renaissance Man in history. We also admire how The Leo encourages visitors to discover their own inner genius.”
