LECTURE | Rural Utah at a Crossroads with Greg Smoak


Apr 25, 2024, 7:00 pm

Utah Rural Crossroads Exhibition Tour Information: Click Here

Utahns embrace a rural identity despite most of our state's population being urban and most of its land being public. Join historian Greg Smoak (Utah state scholar for the Crossroads exhibition) on an exploration of the tensions between the ideals and realities of life in rural Utah as change – past and present – affects our communities. This talk will encourage thinking and conversations about the changing nature of rural Utah and our own Washington County communities.

This event accompanies the Museum on Main Street exhibition, Crossroads: Change in Rural America, a collaboration between the Smithsonian Institution and Utah Humanities, touring in partnership with the Silver Reef Museum.
