5% Day for John Wesley Powell River History Museum

Loading Events

Every second Tuesday of the month, Moonflower Co-op donates 5% of the day’s proceeds to an organization doing important work in our community.

Join us on Tuesday, January 11th to support the John Wesley Powell River History Museum in Green River, Utah!

John Wesley Powell River History Museum

The John Wesley Powell River History Museum serves as a cultural and community anchor for the rural, small town of Green River, Utah, and the surrounding areas. From our annual community art show to engaging rotating exhibits and educational programs for adults and families alike, we aim to celebrate the significance of river history through the cultures and landscapes of the Colorado Plateau. We work with local schools and community organizations to develop and offer programming and other important resources (such as K-12 educator professional development workshops, field trips, and more) most of which are free of charge. In addition, our museum serves as a free to low-cost meeting and events space for a variety of outside community organizations and entities – such as weekly children’s dance and adult fitness classes for the community. We also recently became an official participant in Museums for All, a wonderful initiative of the Institute of Museum and Library Services, to provide free and greatly reduced admission for low-income families, further illustrating our commitment to providing access to lifelong learning opportunities for everyone.

The funds raised from the 5% Day will be utilized to help offset the costs of purchasing and maintaining supplies and materials for our educational programs, which will enable us to offer even more programs!
