About Us

Located at 250 W. Center St, in the historic district of Provo, The Compass is a space for art shows, weddings, conversations, book signings, poetry readings, interspiritual dialogue, music concerts, contemplation retreats, art workshops, and other community events.

We specialize in expansive spiritual and allegorical art. We favor traditional mediums and expressive representational, semi-representational, and symbolic styles. 

We aim to connect collectors and artists who believe that homes and other spaces should not only be beautiful but contain meaningful timeless images that provoke constructive thought and conversation. 

We Invite you to come and find your direction through art.
