One of the best surprises in Utah. This place is beautifully curated and thoughtfully laid out,…read morewith a mix of traditional and modern pieces, plus a strong emphasis on local and regional artists. You can really feel the connection to Utah's cultural history, which makes it stand out from larger, more generic museums. The building itself is stunning--Spanish Colonial Revival architecture with peaceful courtyards and quiet corners to sit and take in the art. It's not overwhelming in size, but theres plenty to see and the rotating exhibits are always interesting and well done. Staff and volunteers are friendly, and the whole place feels very welcoming. Great spot for art lovers, families, or anyone looking for a quiet, reflective experience. They also are a perfect venue for wedding receptions. Easily worth a stop if you're anywhere near Springville or Provo. Also, back in the day when I was in the BYU Russian & German Choirs, we performed here a few times. Not sure if they still do that, but if so, you might just stumble into a surprise concert mid-gallery stroll. Nothing like quietly admiring a landscape painting while 20 students suddenly start singing in Russian or German behind you. It can be equal parts beautiful and mildly disorienting--but in a good way.

Beautiful local museum with an outdoor garden. You can take photos for free outside but indoors you…read morehave to pay for a photographer fee. Many new art gallery's each year. Cute little shop inside. What an architectural gem. Well taken care of. You can tell the city takes pride in this museum. Movies have been filmed here. It continues to be a favorite spot for many families. They have free concerts, Halloween and summer fun activities for the community. You can even rent out a space for person events. Weddings, funerals and baby showers are all held in different areas of the museum. Catering can come work with your event because of their full kitchen.

Amazing place. So wonderful to visit. That was a very fast four hours…read more We arrived at opening and there was already quite a crowd. When we left, the parking lot was overflowing and cars circling around trying to find a parking space. Still, with the influx of larger crowds to parking lot capacity, it didn't feel crowded inside. This is a wonderful place to visit. A wonderful place to bring family and friends..There are animals and species that I've never seen anywhere else, and I've been to the Tucson Sonoran Desert Museum, the San Diego Safari Park, Sea World, Scripps Oceanography, and various zoos. This was a treat. And almost all were active and were seen. Such variety. There is no wasted space in this museum. Walls are adorned, such as a long wall with the ascending walkway going to the penguin exhibit made to look like a South Pole research center. Even every access door for employees are adorned. See my photos. Nice vegetation areas in otherwise unused space. They put a nice climbing gym in what would have been an unused corner, great for parents who need a break and kids to dissipate energy. There are thoughtful benches placed here and there for a sit down rest. There is a very nice small cafe and snack bar to get a yummy huge pretzel, or hamburger and other sandwiches and salads. Looking at the prices, they are very reasonable for a museum/theme park. You are getting a great value for the buck. Whether you are buying for just the day or a membership, I think that you are getting your money's worth. We spent four hours there and didn't see everything, read everything, tried everything. The four hours went by fast. This is a very popular place for good reason--a jewel in the valley. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

Such a cool place to check out! I've been following the Aquarium since it started back in at the…read moreGateway - it's grown so much!! I came here for an event tonight and the area around the claw is so amazing! There are several different animals around the garden area all lit up for Christmas and it so perfect to stroll through. While we didn't get to see any aquatic life on the tank at the Mountain American Event center, it looks like they were still setting things up to add some animals in soon. The facility itself was very spacious with a sound system that covers the whole room. Can't wait to come back once everything is in place!

Love this place. Great for all types of activities including foods, history of the motorcycle world!read more

This small local museum located on Main Street in the town of Springville is dedicated to the…read morehistoric preservation of the town's past. For a small museum it is pact full of photographs, family histories, and objects from the mid 1800s through to the present. The two rooms have so much packed in that one could spend quite some time going through all the information. I found the volunteers to be be very friendly and helpful and they were delighted to talk about the town's history. There is a room downstairs hat is dedicated to children and learning. They have books on the towns history for sale, and if you are from Springville they would likely be able to trace your family for you. While not the biggest place, I am awarding it 5 stars because I love that the town has this place and I hope they manage to continue with it. On street parking is available.

If you have an issue, or need help, the post master, Ron Mendel, is not only not helpful, rude and unable to help, he'll actually make you feel like you're trying to pull one over on the postal service. (Service??? What does that mean??) we had to file an insurance claim for damaged property we received, which was insured, and he spouted our incorrect answers and made us feel like idiots. I had to call customer service on 2 different occasions to get the correct answers because he thought he knew everything, turns out he doesn't.
