About Anthony's
Anthony’s Fine Art & Antiques is a family-run art and antique gallery that was established almost three decades ago. Over the years, our focus has expanded to include discovering, preserving, and promoting furniture, decorative arts, jewelry, paintings, and sculpture. All of these valuable items can be found in our 25,000 square-foot gallery located in a historic church situated in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. We view ourselves as temporary caretakers of these fine objects and take great care to preserve and enhance them, ensuring their longevity for future generations to enjoy. Our ultimate goal is to pass them on to the next caretaker, so that their beauty and history can continue to be appreciated and cherished.
We are continually seeking exceptional pieces to add to our inventory. If you have a piece that you would like to sell, please do not hesitate to contact us via email or phone at +1 (801) 328-2231. We would be delighted to hear from you.

The Building
The building, designed by the esteemed neoclassical architect John A. Headlund, was erected in 1911 as the Immanuel Baptist Church and now holds a coveted spot on the National Register of Historic Places.
In 1954, the congregation relocated to a new site, and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints procured the building for use as a seminary and recreation center. Over time, the building served various functions, including as a temporary rehearsal space for the Utah Symphony while Symphony Hall underwent construction. In the early 1980s, it underwent extensive renovations to transform it from its original purpose as a church into an office building.
For the past twenty-nine years, Anthony’s Fine Art & Antiques has resided here, making us the second-longest-standing occupants of this venerable space. Our collection of traditional and religious art aligns seamlessly with the values of the building's original architects.
