Our key venues for arts and culture offer year-round cultural experiences.
Sharing Logan’s stories.
This contemporary social history museum will open in April. It will be a place to see, hear and experience the stories of the people who have made the City of Logan what it is today.
The displays acknowledge our city’s past, illuminate the present, and help us imagine our future.
It’s a place for our diverse communities to tell their own stories in their own words, through arts and cultural expression, providing opportunities to raise awareness and build upon respect.
