📬 Muse News – October 2025

Welcome to the October edition of Muse News, the official McQuarrie Memorial Museum newsletter—also known as the DUP Museum or Pioneer Museum. Fall has arrived in sunny southern Utah — and with it, a full calendar of events and updates from the McQuarrie Memorial Museum!


This month’s Muse News shares reminders, volunteer opportunities, and important information about our upcoming museum closure in December.


Here’s a quick look at what’s inside:

  • The Third Weekend Event on October 18, featuring Patricia Kent presenting “Native American Interpret Petroglyphs” at 10 AM.

  • Historic Downtown Walking Tours on October 11, 18, and 25.

  • The Utah Pin Quest continues — stop by and collect your pioneer pin!

  • Docent Training sessions and volunteer opportunities to help with museum collections.

  • A call for handmade holiday items to stock our Gift Shoppe.


⚠️ Please note: The museum will be closed from December 8, 2025, through January 2, 2026 for a roof replacement project.


🧡 A heartfelt thank-you to all our dedicated volunteers, donors, and docents — your efforts keep pioneer history alive and thriving in our community.
