The Moab Museum’s temporary exhibition A Grand Heritage: Stories from the Oral History Archive features first-person accounts from Moab’s pre-uranium history, built around oral histories between the late 1880s and the early 1920s. The exhibition will be on display through the end of April 2023.

The year 2022 marked the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of Grand Memories, published by Moab’s Daughters of Utah Pioneers, which chronicled histories of some of the first Euro-American settlers of the region. To celebrate this anniversary, the exhibition invites visitors to dive into the Moab Museum’s Oral History Collection for some more memories of Grand County residents, recently digitized as part of the Community History Program, which is supported by Utah Humanities.

I worked with the lead curator of this exhibition at the Moab Museum to design the layout for each of these exhibition posters which are in current rotation throughout the Moab Museum space.
