In recent years, the Church History Museum has made a concerted effort to design more interactive exhibits using a wider range of interpretive methods and technology. Visitors will also enjoy a special exhibition of Norman Rockwell paintings on loan from the National Scouting Museum. Located adjacent to historic Temple Square, the museum is also within walking distance of excellent restaurants and the City Creek shopping district.

At this event, the WMA will also be unveiling its WestMusing: 10 Minute Museum Talks, based on TED Talks, as another aspect of WMA’s innovative programming. Join the WMA and the Church History Museum welcome our speakers:
