If you love Old West ghost-town history, you won’t want to miss this! For the first time ever, the mining boomtown of Alta has been partially excavated, and what emerged from the ground is incredible. Thousands of artifacts were uncovered, including a fully intact bottle of 150-year-old alcohol, a leather hat, bullets, melted shot glasses, animal bones, and so much more. Discover what these objects reveal about the rowdy and genteel past of Little Cottonwood Canyon.

Darlene McDonald is a published novelist and essayist. She currently serves as the Executive Director of the Selma Institute, a nonprofit she started to provide a way for descendants of slaves to honor ancestors who were enslaved. Darlene will talk about the history of voting in the United States, starting with formation of the electoral college, the election of George Washington, and the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Darlene will demonstrate that throughout American history, there's been more effort to suppress voting rights of American citizens rather than encourage an informed electorate to become civically engaged.

In 2024 the prolific New York artist Nate Amos released his label debut Box for Buddy, Box for Star under his solo moniker This Is Lorelei. The record was critically acclaimed and received year end accolades from Rolling Stone, Billboard, GQ, Pitchfork, Stereogum, The FADER, Paste, but the album and Amos’ star has continued on an unrelenting rise. The last year saw him release a breakthrough record with his band Water From Your Eyes, a rerecorded collection of This Is Lorelei songs entitled Holo Boy, and share a slew of collaborations and reimaginings of the Box for Buddy songs, repackaged as a quasi-deluxe release that included MJ Lenderman, Snail Mail and Amos’ father and sister, Bob & Sarah Amos.

This is a 21+ show.
