I am excited to share that a section of Utah Deaf History is currently on display at the Museum of Utah! Visiting this well-curated exhibit deepened my appreciation for the importance of preserving our community's story. I hope it inspires you as much as it inspired me. A big thank you to the Utah Historical Society for highlighting this vital part of Utah's heritage. Below are some photos I took during my visit on July 12, 2026, with my museum buddy, Morgann Smith. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed exploring this meaningful exhibit and reflecting on our shared history.
Here is a link to the Museum of Utah at the Capitol Complex. Admission is free, so I encourage you to visit and explore this important exhibit whenever you have the opportunity.
