    Cool shows in a friendly outdoor setting. Magic and bluegrass are both great. Support local.

    Local bluegrass music that is wholesome and fun! It's also free and a real flavor of the Moab culture. It's a must when in this desert town!

    Be sure to see some live music and Rick B sure puts on a great magic show with some comedy mixed right in.

    Moab Museum - The story about recreation in Moab

There was minimal focus on the Settlers and the founding of the town. There was not much history telling daily life of the settlers before the uranium discovery. There was barely any mention of surrounding environment and the native Americans relationships to the settlers. Overall, it was a good way to spend an hour to an hour and a half. Admission price was $10 for adult and $8 for Senor. Free parking in front of the museum.

    Bottom Line: A great local museum explaining how Moab came to be the tourist destination it is…read moretoday. Aside from modern day Moab being a big tourist destination and jumping off point for adventures in places like Arches NP and Canyonlands NP I didn't know much about its origins so I was excited to visit the Moab Museum. The museum is one large room and while you can view the exhibits in any order I found it was best to start at the very beginning and work my way clockwise. The museum starts with the indigenous people who lived in modern day Moab and ends with Moab being central to two national parks and a recreation hub. Missionaries, fur trappers, cowboys, miners, adventurists and dinosaurs were all covered in between. My favorite exhibit was about William Grandstaff. The exhibit called "Tracing the Story of William Grandstaff" traces his roots from likely being enslaved in Virginia to becoming a Civil War era soldier, frontiersmen, pioneer, cowboy, miner and saloon manager in Utah and Colorado. I love when museums leave me wanting to know more and William Grandstaff is definitely someone who'd I'd like to learn more about. I'd also like to hike the trail named in his honor - the Grandstaff Trail in Grandstaff Canyon. One of the best features of the museum were historical pictures of the Moab area that you could scroll through on a tablet. The photos really helped me understand the history of Moab. Admission was $10 for an adult and I felt it was well worth it. The museum has a good bit of reading, some artifacts and a few interactive exhibits sprinkled in so some kids might be a little bored but I really enjoyed it. Kids 7 and under visit for free and students are $8.

    I don't normally buy souvenirs on trips, but I was looking for a gift for someone who had helped me…read moreplan some hikes at Arches and Canyonlands. I was walking around Main Street in Moab and the little stone cairn replicas at Sandstone Gallery caught my eye. These trail markers are everywhere on the hiking trails at both national parks, so I thought that would be the perfect gift. They are just so cute. And on the bottom stone, the words "Moab, Utah" are stamped on. I checked out some other souvenir shops too, across the street, but I couldn't find mini sandstone cairns like the ones this shop carries. In addition to the cairns, they also sell mini sandstone arches, as well as some other shapes, and also just sandstones by themselves. I also liked the sandstone magnets that had the Native American rock art pictographs on them (I was really tempted to get a few of these!). In the back of the store is their sale section. And the customer service was awesome! The lady in the store was super nice. I asked her a bunch of questions about the little stone sculpture, like what kind of material it was made of. She included a piece of paper that said what the material was and where they get it from. And she wrapped up my purchase with bubble wrap. And they take credit card! I had a very pleasant and great shopping experience here! It's a great place to find a Moab/Arches/Canyonlands gift for someone or for yourself!

Two and half months later we STILL do not have the package! We've attempted to contact him on several occasions to no avail. The one time he did respond he indicated that the item had been returned because the zip code was wrong (unlikely since my husband filled out the shipping label). He said he'd get it back in the mail right away. After a couple more weeks of waiting and attempting to contact him, my husband called the Moab Chamber of Commerce to see if they could offer any help. The lady there said she would contact the owner of the store - but it's December 26 and we STILL have not received the package. WARNING to anyone who shops there....very nice things, but be sure to take it with you. Would've rated higher but this guy has been so unresponsive. Terrible customer service .
