Vigos was a teacher at South High School from 1945 to 1956, and then initiated studio art courses at newly built Highland High School. This energetic man was also an instructor at the Pioneer Craft House (q.v.) for fifteen seasons; he spent a total of forty-five years as a teacher in the Salt Lake City schools. During his long and productive career, the painter was also very active in the Associated Utah Artists and is represented by his work in numerous area collections. The style of Vigo's paintings is essentially realistic; his Sea Gulls (1950), perhaps this artist's best-known work locally, is owned by the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers. (b.November 2)
