Santa Clara has one of the most fascinating origin stories in Southern Utah — Swiss Mormon converts who sold everything in Switzerland, crossed the Atlantic, and carved a life out of the desert in 1861. On Feb 21, Susannah Nilsson and friends bring that story to life at the McQuarrie Memorial Museum, sharing the history and hands-on traditions those early settlers brought with them. Free, no registration needed, just show up curious. Sat, Feb 21, 5–8:35 PM.
