Community Calendar

This session runs from 8:30am-4:30pm, Monday-Thursday. No camp on Friday.

Join us to find out what it takes to run a world class Museum. As Utah’s state natural history museum, NHMU introduces the amazing variety of Utah’s geology, flora, and fauna—both ancient and modern. With over 5,000 artifacts on display, and many more behind the scenes, campers will experience a wide variety of hands-on exploration from touring collections, labs, and exhibits to learning from curators and staff. Campers will also have an opportunity to curate their own display of the “Museum of Me.”

Consistently rated the best local scavenger hunt since 2016!

Puzzling Adventures are a cross between a scavenger hunt, an adventure race, and an informative self-guided walking tour. Each adventure consists of a series of locations that you are guided to where you are required to answer a question or solve a puzzle to receive your next instruction. Compete as a group, individually or create multiple teams and race each other. Almost all of our adventures are designed to be wheelchair and stroller friendly and all are carefully crafted to be entertaining and informative with something to appeal to all ages. Complete the adventure as quickly as possible to win first place or take your time and enjoy the journey. Price is per team, not per person. Groups can be any size, but small groups are recommended for the best experience.

Ice has sculpted our planet for millennia, shaping the landscapes we see today and connecting distant continents, paving the way for migration. Opening on June 7 at NHMU, Mysteries of the Ice Ages invites visitors to explore 80,000 years of Earth’s dramatic history, uncovering the mysteries of ice and the remarkable adaptations that allowed life to survive in an unforgiving world. Featuring more than 120 specimens, incredible artifacts, and informative interactives, the exhibition brings to life a time when massive glaciers ruled the land and ancient creatures roamed wild.

Exhibit Highlights:
Encounter iconic Ice Age creatures like muskoxen, caribou, wolves, woolly mammoths, and cave bears.

Step into the world of the Neanderthals and discover how they adapted to life in the freezing cold.

Explore the ancient Beringia land bridge that once connected Asia to North America.

Learn how the dramatic landforms we recognize today were carved by ice sheets during the last glaciation.

View real tools and artifacts—thousands of years old—crafted by the Tuniit (Dorset) and Thule-Inuit peoples.

Beginning May 7th and running through August 2nd, there will be many new transparent watercolor paintings on display at Gallery 35 located at 35 N. Main St., St. George, UT. All art is created locally by members of the Dixie Watercolor Society and is framed and available for sale. Gallery hours are Wednesday through Saturday, 10AM to 5PM. Hope to see you there!
