Terry Tempest Williams will engage in a discussion with the Director of the Brigham City Museum of Art and History on her book “Refuge: An Unnatural History of Family and Place,” the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge, and the role that water plays in Northern Utah’s delicate landscape. Visit the Museum's Facebook page for updates and to RSVP here.

The Museum has an exhibit on the founding, flooding, and future of the Refuge from June 20 - November 13, 2021.
