Open to the Public

Midvale City proudly offers subsidized studio space at the Art House, a creative home for local artist-in-residence Abel and a gathering place for inspiration, expression, and community connection in the heart of the Midvale Main Arts & Culture District. Surrounded by more than 45 vibrant murals, the district pulses with color, creativity, and the authentic spirit that makes Midvale unlike anywhere else.

The Art House is more than a studio. It is a living, evolving creative space where art is made, conversations unfold, ideas are shared, and community comes to life.

Meet the Artist (Abel the Artist website)

Born in Augsburg, Germany, and now creating at the foot of the Wasatch Mountains in Midvale, Utah, Abel is an artist driven by exploration, emotion, and human connection. A summa cum laude graduate of Utah State University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, his creative practice moves fluidly between mediums — from mixed-media abstract sculpture to traditional oil painting.

“My creative side has never been able to limit itself to a particular genre. This has been both liberating and challenging.”

Abel’s work embraces experimentation, texture, movement, and storytelling, allowing each piece to evolve naturally through instinct and imagination. During his nine years living in San Diego, he dedicated much of his professional life to art education, helping students of all ages develop both technical skill and creative confidence.

Through teaching, exhibiting, and community engagement, Abel has developed a deep appreciation for the way art can bring people together, spark conversation, and create a sense of belonging.

“Community is such an important part of art. It gives everyone involved the opportunity to be a teacher, and student, with the power to inspire.”

As Midvale’s artist-in-residence, Abel hopes to create experiences that feel welcoming, inspiring, and deeply connected to the community around him.
