In The Middle of Everything

MIDVALE MUSEUM 45th Anniversary

In 1979, a group of Midvale citizens came together to establish a Historical Society for their city. As we approach the Midvale Historical Society and Museum’s 45th anniversary in 2024, we are excited to celebrate Midvale’s rich history. However, we need your assistance!

As the Historical Society, we would love to include your personal history in Midvale. Do you have any family histories, old photos, or other artifacts that tell the story of Midvale? We welcome and appreciate your contributions.

If you are clearing out your storage space this Spring, we would love to see any old slides, 8mm movies, negatives, or other historical materials you may have. We can view and assess these items for you. Additionally, we can transcribe audio recordings and record family histories.

Do you have old o ce supplies, shelves, or other items that you no longer need? We are happy to take them o your hands.

Do you have old toys, school memorabilia, or unique items that you don’t know what to do with? Bring them to us and share their stories!

We are particularly interested in hearing stories about Midvale families, stores, events, and activities. What do you love about Midvale, and what do you love about its history? We welcome your input.

Our museum is open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. You can stop by any time to drop o your items. If these hours don’t work for you, please give us a call, and we will arrange a more suitable time. If you prefer to email us, our address is midvalemuseum@gmail.com. We are also happy to arrange to pick up items from you.

We would also like to note that the Midvale Historical Society and Museum is operated entirely by volunteers. If you would like to contribute your time, we are always looking for additional volunteers. Even a few hours a month can make a signi cant di erence. We will also need volunteers for our upcoming birthday celebration, so please consider joining us!
