Brad Metcalf - Born October 1978 - Metcalf began creating things at an early age. By the age of 7, he was working in his fathers (Gary Metcalf) wood shop and assisting him on a variety of construction projects. At 15 yrs old, Metcalf learned to weld steel in High School. He later enrolled in a welding course at community college along with a few business classes and turned into a business he still owns today, Prima Metal Works.

Prima Metal Works started life as a general steel fabrication company which later evolved into a high end custom furniture and metal art producer.

Prima Metal Works opened its doors in Sandy, Utah in June of 2000. It was a general steel fabrication company, which later evolved into a high end custom furniture and metal art design gallery. In March of 2005, Prima moved to Salt Lake City, which later housed THE BRAD METCALF GALLERY. The building underwent extensive renovation to the second floor which was originally two offices and a walkout patio. The renovation added twice the square footage and made it into one large open space.

By August of 2008, the gallery opened as a space to house the work of Brad Metcalf and to represent other up and coming contemporary artists in Salt Lake City. Brad Metcalf continues to work at the location in the metal shop creating furnishings and art as well as exhibiting the works of other accomplished artists.
