Check out the collection of ancient objects and natural artifacts housed at the Utah Museum of Natural History. The museum is home to various pieces of history like crystallized minerals, bones from the extinct Giant Short-faced Bear, and a fossilized trilobite arthropod, all dating back thousands of years if not more. On your walk through the museum, you'll also see Native American artifacts like moccasins, gloves, bowls, baskets, and more.

The old world meets the very contemporary modern day at the Piper Down Pub. From hip hop and urban acts to Texas Hold'em and other entertainment, the diversity and attitude of everyone in the pub will have you coming back time and time again. There's also Throwback Thursday, where the DJ will spin your favorite Old School jams, and don't miss the hilarity of the Geeks Who Drink pub quiz and karaoke on Wednesday nights. Oh, and they've got a great menu and serve a delectable brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. Diverse? You bet...the fans of the Piper Down Pub wouldn't have it any other way.

Classic, symphonic music meets jazz, Broadway, and even Freddie Mercury with this very accessible set of performances that are set to electrify the Deer Valley Snow Park Amphitheater during its annual Deer Valley Music Festival.

Beginning in early July with a patriotic performance and running through early August, every one of these installments in the series is not to be missed.
