Hanging this year’s holiday tree in the Eccles Theater lobby required imagination, thoughts about nature and Utah’s winter sports, some math and engineering skills, a nod to personal tradition, and about nine months’ effort.
All of that is wrapped up in the art installation that Utah designers Rob and Shelley Beishline unveiled this week in the lobby of the Eccles, at 131 S. Main St. in downtown Salt Lake City. It will remain there through the holiday season, visible to concert attendees and passers-by touring the lights from Temple Square and Gallivan Center.
The holiday tree is a newer downtown tradition, launched at the Eccles in 2018.
