Located in Green River, Utah, Epicenter provides the opportunity to study and make work about the land, its history, and its inhabitants. Since its founding in 2009, Epicenter has brought hundreds of artists, designers, architects, and creative thinkers to the town of Green River for residencies and curated gatherings that seed new projects in and about its rural context. In doing so, the organization hopes to upend stereotypes about small towns and offer new perspectives on instigating change in the Mountain West.
