contains a landscape comprised ofmany significant features of importance of which are the unique temple sites cormonsmormons develop and maintain A mornmormonon temple site is considered the ground on which a mornmormonon temple is situated or is planned for and the land that adjoins the temple and the temple also most temple sites usually contain at least several acres of land and frequently are surrounded with walls or fences to clearly indicate the temple site grounds hereafter in this thesis whenever temple site is used it will refer to a completed or planned mormon temple and the block or parcel of land it occupies A completed temple is also hereafter considered a vertical extension of the temple site temple sites to most cormonsmormons and non cormonsmormons alike represent a visual

within mormon temples several important ordinances are performed on behalf of living and dead individuals these ordinances are of such importance they can only be performed in a dedicated temple mormon temples proper do not represent seats of church ecclesiastical authority but they do indicate that administrative power is nearby housed in other buildings temples are nearly always built in

  • Placing the Cardston Temple in Early Mormon Temple Architectural History
    PLACING THE CARDSTON TEMPLE IN EARLY MORMON TEMPLE ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY By Amanda Buessecker A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Arts Degree in Art History Carleton University May 2020 Supervisor: Peter Coffman, Ph.D. Carleton University ii Abstract: The Cardston temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints represents a drastic shift in temple architecture of the early Mormon faith. The modern granite structure was designed not to show a mere difference of aesthetic taste, but as an embodiment of the evolving relationship between the Mormon pioneers and the American government. Earlier temples, erected in the nineteenth century throughout the valleys of Utah, were constructed by Mormon pioneers at a time when the religious group desired to separate themselves from the United States physically, politically, and architecturally. When the temple was built in Cardston, Alberta (1913-1923), it was a radical departure from its medievalist predecessors in Utah. The selected proposal was a modern Prairie-school style building, a manifestation of Utah’s recent interest in integrating into American society shortly after being admitted to the Union as a state in 1896. iii Contents Introduction ................................................................................................................................ 1 Part I: A Literature Review ........................................................................................................ 5 A Background for Semiotics .................................................................................................

  • Salt Lake City Arts Council Strategic Plan
    2017-2020 Salt Lake City Arts Council Strategic Plan 2017-2020 Introduction The Salt Lake City Council on the Arts was formed in 1976 at the request of Mayor Ted Wilson, who appointed its first Executive Director. The Council was created to help distribute funds to arts organizations within the City, taking the burden off the City Commission. By 1979 a nonprofit entity, The Salt Lake Arts Council Foundation, was established to manage funds designated for the arts organization and also begin programming of their own. The two staff members of the Foundation were City employees. In 1981, this new group moved into the Art Barn, located in the City’s Reservoir Park, when the space was vacated by the Salt Lake Arts Center. From that initial beginning, the organization now has six full-time City employees who, together with the Foundation board, have grown the original concept into a significant cultural entity in the City. The Salt Lake City Arts Council is the City’s designated local arts agency and uses its unique position as manager of both public and received-grant resources to leverage how the arts are supported and presented to the City. Through its work, the Council has created enduring connections between the arts and the public, cultivated future artists and arts organizations, given voice to community arts conversations and needs, provided resources for arts programming, offered education about the arts as well as support of arts education efforts, and impacted City policy affecting the arts. It has developed its own programs, as well, that have endured for decades and serve as models for other arts programming.

  • Non-Mormon Presence in 1880S Utah
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Earth and Mineral Sciences THE WASP IN THE BEEHIVE: NON-MORMON PRESENCE IN 1880S UTAH A Thesis in Geography by Samuel A. Smith c 2008 Samuel A. Smith Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science August 2008 The thesis of Samuel A. Smith was read and approved1 by the following: Deryck W. Holdsworth Professor of Geography Thesis Adviser Roger Downs Professor of Geography Karl Zimmerer Professor of Geography Head of the Department of Geography 1. Signatures on file in the Graduate School. iii Abstract Recent studies have reconsidered the Mormon Culture Region in light of its 1880{1920 transition to American political and economic norms. While these studies emphasize conflicts between the Mormon establishment and the non-Mormon federal government, Mormon/non-Mormon relations within Utah have received little direct attention. Based on religious affiliations recorded in the 1880 federal census of Utah Territory, this study uses historical GIS to visualize the composition of Utah's \Mormon" and \non-Mormon" towns. The results highlight the extensive presence of religious minorities in Utah's settlements. Case studies of farm villages, mining camps, and urban neighborhoods probe the social and economic contexts of non-Mormon presence in Utah. These studies, based on Sanborn maps and city directories, explore the geographical mosaic of Mormon and non-Mormon residence and business activity. These variegated patterns, often absent from historical accounts of the region, enable localized analyses of the ensuing decades of cultural conflict, transformation and assimilation. Keywords: Mormons, non-Mormons, Mormon Culture Region, Utah, 1880 Cen- sus, historical demography.
