Fun Free Things To Do In Provo
Provo “Welcome Home” is the third largest city in Utah and it is consistently recognized as one of the best places to live, work and play in the United States.
Bridal Veil Falls: Bridal Veil Falls is a 600-foot-tall waterfall nestled in the southern end of Provo Canyon. Easily reached by car or by trail on a bike or by foot. The best way to see Bridal Veil Falls is going to Bridal Veil Falls State Park. This spacious recreational area sits about 3.5 miles away from the entrance to Provo Canyon and has picnic tables, a paved pathway, and barbecue grills. There is a scenic walkway that passes in front of the waterfall. Great for kids and adults.
Museum of Peoples and Cultures: he Museum of Peoples and Cultures at Brigham Young University houses anthropological, archaeological and ethnographic artifacts from past and present times. Located on BYU campus, the goal of the museum is to inspire BYU students and the public toward an understanding of and appreciation for people from around the world.
Brigham Young University Museum of Art: This is one of my favorite. I used to go here at least once a month when I lived in Provo because the exhibits were constantly rotating. It’s home to ten exhibition galleries, classrooms, an auditorium, a gift shop, and a theater.
Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum. My husband has been going here since he was a kid and it is my daughters favorite museum in Provo. the museum contains a vast collection of plants and taxidermied animals. Each exhibit aims to educate the public about the bodies and behaviors of animals as well as ways for people to protect the environment. They also have live programs.
Hike the Y. An easy albeit steep trail runs from the east side of Provo up to the block Y on the mountain. It is a very popular hike for college students and families. From the Y you get great views of the Provo area and Utah Lake. I love this hike and have done it numerous times. Last time my husband went out of town though I tried to do it by myself with the two kids by myself and my daughter would have none of it. We didn’t even make it out of sight of the parking lot. At least it was a pretty day and we grabbed ice cream after at Mora Iced Creamery
Okay this one is not technically in Provo but excuse the liberty I am taking by suggesting you go see Roots of Knowledge is a permanent stained glass display completed in 2016 at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, United States. The creation of the exhibit was designed and overseen by stained glass artists Tom Holdman and Cameron Oscarson. It took over 12 years and cost US$4.5 million to complete. Honestly if you are anywhere NEAR you Utah you should come see this. I have gone over a dozen times by myself, with people from out of town and with my family. I will continue to go every chance I get. Each time you see something different and miraculous.
Well there you have it. Thank you for watching our adventure. Now go out there, make your own and tell me all about it. Until next time. Keep traveling.

Staycation: Free Attractions in Utah
Question: What do art museums and Dinosaur bones have in common?
Answer:We visited both of them today.
Michael's brother was in town with his family and we decided to play tourist with him. Utah is one of the greatest states to visit and we are trying to visit it's many wonders. Today we spent time on BYU's campus where we visited the paleontology lab and the art museum. We found a few hoaxes in the museum and fell in love with the art by Nina Katchadorian. We rolled down hills and sampled the best chocolate milk in the world. What a great day.

Thomas A DeDecker art
Thomas A DeDecker art
Music, Byan El
Thomas deDecker was born in Appleton, Wisconsin, and studied at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. His paintings of western landscapes and of the American Indian lifestyle are reminiscent of works by the masters of the Hudson River School of Art. He feels that the essence of a successful landscape painting is in capturing not only the visual scene, but also a mood that transcends any particular moment in time. This is possible only if the artwork can in some small way alter the viewer's state of mind and inspire them to pause for reflection. Many artists have been drawn to the unique western landscapes of the United States, but few have followed the romanticism of the masters.
Tom deDecker has won numerous state and national awards, including Artist of the Year, 1986, and Outstanding Artist given by the C. M. Russell Museum.

Exemplary Teaching at BYU
In 2009, the Faculty Center held focus groups with faculty members whom students rank as some of the best at BYU at helping them learn and at being spiritually inspiring. In this session, we shared video excerpts from our focus groups regarding a few areas where they differed and where they agreed about ways of combining faith and learning in the classroom. After sharing these brief excerpts, we asked for comments from some of the focus group faculty members and invited the audience to engage in reflection and discussion about what best fits their discipline and approach.

Snow College Entrepreneurship Seminar: Art-repreneur Panel 10-23-2019
We are excited to bring a panel of local artists to our Entrepreneurship Seminars this year. Come and support these artists as they talk with students about their careers as artists.
John Clark – Manti, UT
John Henry Clark graduated from Utah State University with a BFA in 1994. He is an artist and author with an interest in tourism and automobile history. He and his wife Melissa are the authors of “Opening Zion,” a book on Zion National Park’s first official tourists. He has also written a series on automobile history in Utah called Motor Tales. John is an award winning printmaking artist whose work has been displayed in numerous juried art shows. Exhibitions include the 89th Annual Utah Spring Salon in 2013 where he received an award of merit, and the Pictured: Close to Home, Our Own Spectacular National Parks show at the St. George Art Museum in 2016. His passion for tourism history led to the creation of a series of vintage-style, screen printed posters that highlight the golden age of motor travel in western national parks. John also designed Utah’s newest ski-themed license plate.
Steve Weller – Ephraim, UT
Steve Weller is a middle school English teacher and college Instructor with a love for laughter. When he’s not teaching classes and wrestling with his kids he finds time for the occasional mural or caricature sketch. He has been drawing completely relatable (sometimes painfully so) middle school comic strips on his classroom board since he first started teaching 11 years ago. With four self-published books, regular published space in newspapers, multiple features on national education websites and nearly 20,000 followers on Facebook and Instagram, maybe it’s time to really get serious with this whole art thing.
Douglas Fryer – Spring City, UT
Douglas Fryer was born in Salt Lake City , Utah, and was raised in Illinois and California. In 1988 he received a BFA in Illustration from Brigham Young University in Provo Utah, and later returned to BYU for further study toward an MFA in Painting and Drawing, completing the degree in 1995. Douglas has taught Fine Art and Illustration at several universities and art schools, including BYU, The University of Hartford in Hartford Connecticut, and at The Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. Fryer has also been invited to lecture and teach workshops in many locations in the United States and Europe. He has received numerous commissions to complete large murals for public and private locations. Douglas is currently represented by Meyer Gallery, Santa Fe, New Mexico and by Illume Gallery, St. George, Utah. His paintings are in numerous public and private collections in North America and Europe. His personal works are images of places, objects and people that have simple, yet profound significance to him.
Joe Bennion – Spring City, UT
I enjoy making pottery by hand on a foot powered treadle wheel. The physical involvement places me deeper in the process. The gentle sound of the wheel and the soft resistance of the clay in my hand are at once comforting and pleasant. Pleasure is an important element of our life in this world. It gives meaning and balance to the confusion, pain and sorrow we encounter here. I hope that as people take my pottery in hand and raise it to their lips they will recognize some the experience I have had in making it and will find pleasure of their own in use.
I am fascinated with the idea that we are the children of a benevolent creator. The influences that most powerfully shape who we are seem to be located in the household and family. I want my pottery to be there and to promote and influence that growth, however small it's part may be. The family dinner table is sacred space and the venue of first choice for my pottery.
I prefer domestic pottery that is plain, quiet and understated. I try to make pots that will play in the background, that speak gently but carry a great deal of information to those willing to wait and listen. I love the kinds of surfaces derived from wood firing and salt glazing processes. In the case of the wood fired kiln I also enjoy the deeper involvement with process that the stoking of the kiln affords me. I love to sit with a kiln late at night and listen to the wood popping and the quiet sounds of the draft.
Because of my decision to make quiet pottery I have had to leave the more public sales venues of street fairs, shops and galleries and sell my pottery at home where it is made. Somehow that environment shows my work to best advantage. I live and work in small Mormon farming village in the mountains of central Utah. Over the past ten years I have shifted my marketing to bring people to my door rather than sending the work out. This seems to work best and it feels right to me.
Carl Heinrich Bloch (1834-1890) A collection of paintings 4K Ultra HD
Carl Heinrich Bloch (18341890) was a Danish painter.
He was born in Copenhagen, Denmark and studied there at the Royal Danish Academy of Art (Det Kongelige Danske Kunstakademi) under Wilhelm Marstrand .
Bloch's parents wanted their son to enter a respectable profession - an officer in the Navy. This, however, was not what Carl wanted. His only interest was drawing and painting, and he was consumed by the idea of becoming an artist. He went to Italy to study art, passing through the Netherlands, where he became acquainted with the work of Rembrandt, which became a major influence on him. Carl Bloch met his wife, Alma Trepka, in Rome, where he married her on 31 May 1868. They were happily married until her early death in 1886.
His early work featured rural scenes from everyday life. From 1859 to 1866, Bloch lived in Italy, and this period was important for the development of his historical style.
His first great success was the exhibition of his Prometheus Unbound in Copenhagen in 1865. After the death of Marstrand, he finished the decoration of the ceremonial hall at the University of Copenhagen. The sorrow over losing his wife weighed heavily on Bloch, and being left alone with their eight children after her death was very difficult for him.
In a New Year's letter from 1866 to Bloch, H. C. Andersen wrote the following: What God has arched on solid rock will not be swept away! Another letter from Andersen declared Through your art you add a new step to your Jacob-ladder into immortality.
In a final ode, from a famous author to a famous artist, H.C. Andersen said Write on the canvas; write your seal on immortality. Then you will become noble here on earth.
He was then commissioned to produce 23 paintings for the King's Chapel at Frederiksborg Palace. These were all scenes from the life of Christ which have become very popular as illustrations. The originals, painted between 1865 and 1879, are still at Frederiksborg Palace. The altarpieces can be found at Holbaek, Odense, Ugerloese and Copenhagen in Denmark, as well as Loederup, Hoerup, and Landskrona in Sweden.
Through the assistance of Danish-born artist Soren Edsberg, the acquisition of Christ healing at the pool of Bethesda, , was made possible for The Museum of Art, Brigham Young University (BYU), Provo, Utah, United States. A second work by Bloch, an 1880 grisaille version of The Mocking of Christ, was purchased by BYU in June 2015.
Carl Bloch died of cancer on 22 February 1890. His death came as an abrupt blow for Nordic art according to an article by Sophus Michaelis. Michaelis stated that Denmark has lost the artist that indisputably was the greatest among the living. Kyhn stated in his eulogy at Carl Bloch's funeral that Bloch stays and lives.
A prominent Danish art critic, Karl Madsen, stated that Carl Bloch reached higher toward the great heaven of art than all other Danish art up to that date. Madsen also said If there is an Elysium, where the giant, rich, warm and noble artist souls meet, there Carl Bloch will sit among the noblest of them all!
Bloch's influence
For over 40 years The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has made heavy use of Carl Bloch's paintings, mostly from the Frederiksborg Palace collection, in its church buildings and printed media. The LDS church has produced films depicting scriptural accounts of Christ's mortal ministry, using Bloch's paintings as models for the colour, light and overall set design as well as the movement of the actors in many of the films' scenes. The most notable example of this is the movie The Testaments of One Fold and One Shepherd.
