The Utah Arts Festival kicks off today at Library Square in Downtown Salt Lake. Tying the event together in order to "vibrate under one umbrella," the Arts Festival will feature a 700-foot "Earth Harp" spanning Library Square and turning it into a working musical instrument. Bill Close enters the Public Square to talk about and play the Earth Harp. Plus we'll talk to some of the exhibiting artists - more than 133 have booths set up, from painting to pottery, fiber arts, metal work, sculpture, multi-media collage, printmakers, jewelry and toys. The Public Square digs into the artist's life. Artists include: Jennifer Worsley (pastels), Lynn Meecham (oil), Linda Curtis-Stover (oil), and Cheryl Livingston-Young (oil). Later this hour, join us for the music of Calico, a Salt Lake music group performing at the Arts Festival. Bandmates Andrew Shaw and Brady Gunnell will play some of their songs and talk about musical inspiration.
