Current Exhibition
2020 Photography Competition: Changes
September 12 - November 14, 2020.
When we first chose the theme "Changes" for this competition, we at the Brigham City Museum did not imagine the extent of change the world had in store. Even the exhibit itself had to experience change, as it was moved from its planned spring dates to the fall. We originally spoke of the cyclical nature of change, but now our thoughts center on the abrupt, transformative changes that shape our lives.
