The Heritage Day Celebration includes a tour of many of the town’s charming pioneer-era homes and buildings, built along Main Street and throughout the town. Tickets for the home tours cost $10 for adults and $5 for children, and are sold at the Old Spring City School and the Old Firehouse, and funds benefit preservation and restoration efforts in Spring City.

An art and antique sale is also held at the Old Spring City School. A silent auction, called “Art Squared,” is held at the Old School, where patrons bid on one-foot square paintings done by well known Spring City artists including Osral Allred, Lee Bennion, Susan Gallacher, M’Lisa Paulsen, Doug Fryer, Kathleen Peterson, Cassandria Parsons, and many other Utah artists.

Additional artwork by well-known artists as well as antiques will be available for sale in the Old School and in local galleries. Breakfast and lunch is served at the Spring City bowery and is sponsored by the local LDS ward. Spring City is just off Highway 89, between Mt. Pleasant and Ephraim. It may be sunny in Spring City while rainy on the Wasatch Front, and the homes and art are lovely, whatever the weather!
