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.

We are end of life doulas that are coming together to create a safe space where people can come and have conversations about death and dying. We do this over food in a large group. We are trying to help death become less taboo and educated people on anything from getting their affairs in order or how to do a green burial in Utah. All ages welcome. This is a safe, judgement free, no fixing zone. Every belief is welcome.
We'll celebrate the New Year with dancing and dessert and a toast to 2026 with the UPR team in Old Hollywood style!

The Brigham City Museum of Art and History invites painters of all levels to share their vision of Utah in the 2025 Plein Air Competition.
Plein Air competitions are community challenges for artists of all ages, backgrounds, skills, and experience levels to celebrate the beauty and wonder of Utah’s natural world. The spirit of plein air requires artists to paint their entries entirely “out in the open air” with only a very short time in which to paint, frame, and submit their entries.
The museum is open Tuesday-Friday, 10:00am-5:00pm, and Saturday 1:00pm-5:00pm.
Traveling exhibition in partnership with the Utah Division of Arts & Museums Traveling Exhibitions Program.

The Declaration of Independence summarized the colonists’ motivations to seek independence from Great Britain and is seen as the first formal statement of a nation’s intention to choose their own form of government. This exhibit not only highlights the influencers and communication techniques used for this historical period including song, music, maps, and the written word, but makes connections to Utah’s contributions and the communication and technology used today.
