Rural America is facing 21st century changes and opportunities. Come get inspired to understand your community – where we came from and new prospects on the horizon – through data tracking. We will look at examples of data recorded in aesthetic ways and then create our own beautiful methods of tracking data. Your observations can have impact on your community!

Presented by: Virginia Catherall, Utah Museum of Fine Arts

This event is part of Crossroads: Change in Rural America, a traveling exhibition from the Smithsonian Institution's Museum on Main Street program that provokes fresh thinking and sparks conversations about the future and sustainability of rural communities. Crossroads offers small towns a chance to look at their own paths over the past century – to highlight changes that affected their fortunes, explore how they have adapted, and think about what's next.

Crossroads: Change in Rural America, is a collaboration between the Smithsonian Institution and Utah Humanities, touring in partnership with North Summit Unite and Summit County History Department. This event is done in partnership with the Utah Museum of Fine Arts, the education partner for the Utah tour of Crossroads.
