The mission of Utah Humanities (UH) revolves around offering first-hand, engaging humanities experiences. Our free public events are direct, personal opportunities to identify with literature, understand local and national heritage, and share viewpoints in civil conversations, all of which serve to strengthen the fabric of our personal and community relationships. We offer connection, context, and courage. We work with partners to extend our reach and deepen our work. In fact, everything we do at Utah Humanities is in collaboration with other organizations. Aligning with cultural, educational, professional, and service organizations is essential to fulfilling our mission, and partnering with us can result in measurable community improvement. Our statewide work at UH is divided into thematic Centers, each of which has a specific humanities focus and associated programs. It is through our Centers that we partner with Utah organizations to improve communities through the humanities. The Centers are the Center for the Book, the Center for Community Heritage, the Center for Educational Access, the Center for Local Initiatives, and Special Projects.
