Geyser Girls
Geyser Girls: a waiting room at Crystal Geyser
Geyser Girls is a two-day drawing residency at Crystal Geyser, 4.5 river-miles south of Green River, Utah. While you wait for the geyser to blow, come sit with Alyse Emdur on sofas set within cascading
travertine, and browse her growing collection of womenβs athletic magazines.

High Desert Test Sites heads to Green River, Utah for our next “big” event, HDTS: Epicenter.
Following the epic HDTS 2013 event, which took us on the road to Albuquerque, New Mexico, we are turning our focus in 2015 to the communities and contemporary art programs in rural Utah. For our next event we will be partnering with Epicenter, a Green River-based organization founded in 2009 by a group of architectural designers, in the spirit of Samuel Mockbee’s visionary Rural Studio. We are inspired by the energy and vision at Epicenter, and by the ways in which they provide resources to local residents through active involvement in their intimate community.
HDTS: Epicenter is a collaborative curation of artists’ projects, along with many regional points of interest and programs in diverse locations in and around the rural Utah community of Green River. Participating artists include:
Steve Badgett
