USU Museum of Anthropology Invites Community to Explore Culture Through First Saturday Programming

LOGAN — The Utah State University Museum of Anthropology will host Saturdays at the Museum, a free, family-friendly monthly series running from Oct. 4, 2025, through May 2, 2026, in Old Main room 352. Each event will feature hands-on activities designed to spark curiosity and connect learning with fun.

“As a student in the department, I really enjoy the Saturday events at the museum because they are great volunteer opportunities and good ways to get connected with the community through fun and educational activities,” said Sascha Baldauf, USU student and museum volunteer.Themes change every month, and the current lineup of planned activities will see participants explore topics ranging from volcanoes to Japanese fashion to the history of chocolate.

These events are created to cultivate cultural awareness and curiosity by making anthropology engaging and accessible to all. Families, students and community members are invited to explore global traditions, history and science through interactive activities.

“Saturdays at the Museum offer an opportunity for us to come together and explore the fascinating field of anthropology. We design engaging activities for all ages that examine what it means to be human,” said Molly Cannon, museum director.
