Shopping in St. George: Malls, Boutiques, and the Farmers Market

Not a shopping destination, but more than you would guess. The malls, the downtown boutiques, the farmers market, and where to buy real art.

St. George is not exactly a shopping destination, but there is more than you would guess, and it splits into two very different experiences: the practical stuff and the fun, local stuff. Here is where to go.

The malls

Red Cliffs Mall on Red Cliffs Drive is the city's enclosed, air-conditioned mall, anchored by the big names like Dillard's, JCPenney, and Barnes & Noble, the reliable rainy-day or too-hot-outside option. Next door, The Promenade at Red Cliffs is the outdoor center with the likes of Old Navy and Big 5 plus a row of chain restaurants. Between the two, you have covered the practical shopping.

Downtown and Ancestor Square

The better browsing is downtown. Ancestor Square and the surrounding historic blocks hold local boutiques and specialty shops in old sandstone buildings, places like Encore for a unique outfit or Annie's Vintage Garden for one-of-a-kind finds. It is a slower, prettier kind of shopping, and it pairs perfectly with lunch or coffee downtown.

The farmers market

From spring through fall, the Downtown Farmers Market at Ancestor Square is the weekend move: local produce, baked goods, crafts, live music, and a good community feel. Go in the morning before it heats up.

And the galleries

If you want to bring home art instead of a t-shirt, the Kayenta Art Village galleries out in Ivins are the place, with pottery, paintings, jewelry, and more straight from the makers.

Practical stuff at Red Cliffs, character downtown, and a market on the weekend. That is the St. George shopping map.
