BoxCar is one of those "hidden gems" that you may not even know exists. I thought I knew everything…read morethere is to know about Salt Lake City, but boy was I wrong. How did I not know such an awesome place exists? For one, it can be difficult to find--especially at night. Either it was dark and I suck at seeing (both of those are very true but shhhhh), or it really is THAT hard to find. BoxCar is incredible but can almost be overwhelming because there is SO MUCH stuff in there. I believe it is a warehouse with about 30,000 square feet but there is definitely 40,000 square feet of things in there...but that is also the beauty of it. The artists are able to turn anything into something; there is patterns, there is abstract work, there is EVERYTHING. They have some cute animals that roam the building every once in a while and the people are all friendly--it feels like a family. My favorite art piece at Box Car was the stack of TVs. It was like nothing I have ever seen before and I just found it fascinating that they were able to come up with such a unique design. The highlight of my trip at Box Car was without a doubt, the light show. How freaking cool?! I can't imagine how much work it took. They had so many awesome elements during the light show as well including the water, wind and sounds. It was not just lights. They also had an awesome display at the front of the room. I just cannot imagine how much work goes into that light show and it is one of the coolest things I have ever experienced. I would go back to BoxCar just for the light show!

I visited BoxCar studios a few weeks ago and haven't stopped thinking about it since. BoxCar…read moreStudios is a place that fosters a community for artists by creating an environment where everything belongs. The studio is whimsically eclectic and wildly fascinating. Wandering around the studio  invoked a childlike wonder and deep sense of curiosity in me that I haven't connected with in years. Their careful collection of so many things I never knew existed combined with other things I was able to get reacquainted with felt like an "I Spy" book come to life and I was absolutely in awe of their thoughtful curation every second of my visit. The environment feels like the best fever dream you've ever been in where you're transported to a collection of attics of the coolest people you've ever known combined with a workshop, a tattoo parlor,  a bar, and an antique store. What I love most about this place is the community they've created that has an underlying notion and bold notion of making sure everything and everyone belongs. Every single person I met was interesting, welcoming, and genuine.  Essentially, BoxCar is a place that demonstrates a tangibility to the idea that just because something is discarded by one person, doesn't mean it's not valuable to another. I felt like I entered a different and more magical world in a different time, taking my mind off anything else that seemed pressing in my life. This place isn't trendy and not everyone will enjoy it,  but if you love originality and character, this is the place. I found it insanely cool and I could not have possibly enjoyed my time more.

The two employees I interacted with--a young woman and a man--were both incredibly nice, friendly, and personable. They even took the time to pack my gifts into individual bags, which was such a thoughtful touch. I'm from California and definitely not used to people being this friendly! Their customer service really stood out and made the experience even better. If you're visiting Salt Lake City, I definitely recommend stopping by Everything Utah for some great Utah souvenirs and a genuinely friendly experience!

They truly have something for everyone, with a wonderful selection at reasonable prices. You'll find everything from local honey, cups, and clothing to jewelry, gemstones, and unique Utah-themed gifts. I especially loved the gemstone bracelets, which came with information explaining the meaning, purpose, and believed benefits of each stone. The copper bracelets were another favorite. On our most recent visit, an employee helped us find citrine jewelry for my niece because it is her birthstone. We were able to choose a beautiful necklace, earrings, and a ring for her. I also highly recommend picking up one of the mystery souvenir bags near the exit. Ours was filled with a fun assortment of items, and we loved everything inside. It added an extra element of surprise to our shopping experience! I've now visited this store twice, and each time the employees have been professional, kind, and incredibly helpful. They took the time to help us find meaningful and unique gifts without making us feel rushed. Street parking was easy to find nearby, and it was free during our Sunday visit. On days when payment is required, you can conveniently scan the posted QR code to pay. I absolutely adore Everything Utah and highly recommend stopping by if you're looking for souvenirs or special gifts in Salt Lake City. I will definitely return the next time I'm in town!
