Museum of Peoples, Cultures offers unique date night activity Jan. 21

The Museum of Peoples and Cultures at Brigham Young University will host the classic date night “Culture-Me-Mine” Friday, Jan. 21, at 7 p.m. at the museum, located at 100 E. 700 N. in Provo. 

Tickets for “Culture-Me-Mine” are $10 a couple and will be available for purchase at the Wilkinson Student Center Information Desk beginning Tuesday, Jan. 18.

To start off the night there will be a tour of the museum’s current exhibitions, “New Lives: Building Community at Fourmile Ruin” and “Beneath Your Feet: Discovering Utah Valley Archaeology,” followed by a game of “Couple Feud,” a scavenger hunt and refreshments.  The night will end with a clay activity where couples can put their newfound knowledge of Anasazi pottery and Fremont figurines to use. 

 “‘Culture-Me-Mine’ is a great date activity because it’s out of the ordinary,” said Anna McKean, promotions manager at the museum. “There aren’t many places that do a date-night quite like this one.”

For more information, visit mpc.byu.edu, or contact the museum at (801) 422-0020 or e-mail mpc@byu.edu. The museum is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Tuesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. It is closed Saturday and Sunday.

BYU research: Mega wildfires can actually be a good thing

November 04, 2025
BYU professor Sam St. Clair is the principal investigator on the first study to show positive impacts of megafires (fires greater than 100,000 acres) across different forest types. Megafires can help some forest communities thrive — especially in areas where chronic browsing by elk, deer, and livestock has hindered tree regeneration, a widespread issue that often leads to forest regeneration failure.
