Bringing History to Life: Giving Tuesday

This Giving Tuesday, the Moab Museum invites you to join us in "Bringing History to Life" by supporting community-funded educational experiences for students, guides, and visitors. Your gift directly impacts programs that make Moab’s history accessible, from student memberships and local guide training to hands-on school visits and field trips. Each contribution helps deepen connections to Moab’s unique heritage, fostering a lifelong appreciation for history, science, and culture in our community. Together, we can inspire curiosity and engagement, ensuring Moab’s stories are shared for generations to come.

• $25: Give the Gift of Student Membership
  • Your gift of $25 will bring history alive for a student. With a student membership, local students from pre-K to college will have year-round access to our exhibitions, hands-on activities, and community events. From the youngest visitors learning the stories of Moab’s early inhabitants to university students studying the impact of uranium on our town, you’ll be sparking curiosity and connection. Your support helps us foster a love for history, science, and heritage that lasts a lifetime.
• $50: Moab History 101 Training for Guides
  • By donating $50, you’ll support in-depth training for our Moab area guides, equipping them to bring Moab’s rich stories to life for visitors to the region. Each spring, we equip over 300 guides with the many intricacies of local history, culture, and natural landscapes to share with their audiences. Sponsor a guide’s training this season and be part of enhancing the Moab experience for thousands of visitors.
• $100: School Visits and Lesson Planning
  • With a $100 donation, you’ll directly impact K-12 education in Grand County. Your gift allows us to develop lesson plans and hands-on activities that make history relevant and fun for over 1,000 students each year. Help us continue this vital outreach, connecting students with the history of Moab in meaningful, interactive ways—whether it’s exploring artifacts, learning about local geology, or understanding the uranium legacy that shaped our community.
• $250: Exhibition-Related Field Trips for U92: Moab’s Uranium Legacy
  • Support the full experience of our upcoming exhibition, U92: Moab’s Uranium Legacy, with a $250 donation.

Imagine students visiting real locations where Moab’s uranium story unfolded—learning directly from historians, scientists, and former industry workers. You’ll provide the resources to make history tangible for students, giving them a deeper understanding of how uranium shaped our region’s past and impacts its future.
