The “From Field Sketch to Photograph” presentation is an illustrative journey of the historic canyon with University of Utah’s rare books librarian Luba Basin.
Summit County Historian Sandra Morrison said the Saturday talk is part lecture, part slide show.
“Using the special collections and the rare books at the library, Luba will demonstrate how the
landscape has been transformed into an enduring image of travel in the canyons,” Morrison said on KPCW’s “Local News Hour” Sept. 10.
Basin will use firsthand accounts to tell stories that paint a picture of travelers through the canyon from pioneers and explorers to railroad workers and tourists.
The lecture at the historic Echo Church off Old Highway 30 outside Henefer begins at 4 p.m. Saturday. Admission is free.
