    The Utah Public Art program was delighted and hono The Utah Public Art program was delighted and honored to attend the official opening for the new State Liquor Store located in Roy City. Visitors to this location will be able to view the newest addition to the Utah Public Art Collection, “Backbone of the Basin,” by Cole Eisenhour. “Backbone of the Basin” is a vibrant tribute to the history and values of Roy, from the beautiful natural landscape, to the proud legacy present in Roy’s proximity to Hill Air Force Base. 

Cole Eisenhour is a Roy-based artist, living only minutes down the street from this new store. His work can be found across Utah, and we are pleased to welcome this piece into the state collection. 

The Utah Public Art program would like to express our gratitude to the Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Services for their great partnership, in addition to the Utah Division of Facilities Construction and Management, Jacoby Architects, and Paulsen Construction.
