Founders’ Day 2025

You’re invited to our Provo Founders’ Day Celebration!

Join us here at the Pioneer Village on Tuesday, April 1, 2025, from 5-8pm as we celebrate our heritage. We’re excited to have as part of our special program Native American-style flute music player Gary Hansen, the Provo Deputy Mayor Isaac Paxman, and keynote speaker Sondra G. Jones, PhD, who will share her insights on “A Very Fertile Valley: Homeland of the Timpanogos Utes.” The program begins at 6pm in the Carriage House.

Come enjoy insightful speakers, the sounds of Native American-style music, delicious refreshments and explore our historic cabins.

Admission is free, and donations are always appreciated. Parking is available at the Provo Recreation Center and across the street from the Village at Timpanogos Elementary School.

Plus, don’t miss the DUP Museum Bazaar, also on April 1st from 5-8 pm.

We can’t wait to see you there!
