Art City Inn was originally built in 1892 by Moses and Anna Kearns Johnson. Moses was a prominent actor and son of the founder of Springville, Aaron Johnson. At the time, the inn was known as the Johnson Hotel and was one of three hotels in Springville, Utah. Two significant railroads connected the town to the rest of the US which created a need for accommodations for visitors, along with Springville's success in agricultural processing.
William Henry Kearns and Loretta Chase Kearns bought it in the early 1900s, and added onto it sometime between 1908 and 1925 with the two-story rear wing. Loretta and her son Howard were artists and while living at the hotel, they painted multiple pieces of art, now under the care of the Springville Museum of Art.
Throughout the following decades, it would be run as an inn under the names of Kearns House, Manitou Hotel, Valley Tavern Hotel, amongst others. In the early 2000s, most of the major systems were updated and it was then run as a Victorian-style bed and breakfast for several years. Finally in 2021, extensive renovations were started and then finished in 2022 to turn it into what you see today. Welcome to Art City!
