For nearly 15 years, The Leonardo has inspired creativity and innovation as a vital, community-powered institution championing art, science, and technology for Utah’s residents and visitors alike. We are deeply grateful for the support and involvement of our community, which has always been integral to our mission.

After careful consideration, The Leonardo is closing its doors permanently. This difficult decision follows years-long challenges with the aging building, which is now 61 years old. Critical infrastructure necessary for The Leonardo to operate, including the escalators, elevators, and plumbing, has reached the end of its serviceable life. Despite efforts with the City and dedicated vendors, these issues could not be overcome.

We remain proud of The Leonardo’s legacy and impact on our community. While our physical doors will close, we encourage all who have been inspired by The Leonardo to continue fostering creativity, curiosity, and innovation in Utah and beyond.

We extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who has supported The Leonardo over the years. Thank you for making this journey possible.
