There are less than two weeks left to see a traveling exhibit currently on display at the
Uintah Heritage Museum. The show is the Utah Division of Arts & Museums ‘Erratics’
Traveling Art Show and it is a portfolio by Saltgrass Printmakers. A description of the
show states: “A glacial erratic is a glacially deposited rock which differs from size and
type native to the area which it rests. Glaciers crack, gouge, or thrust pieces of bedrock
and carry them, often over hundreds of miles. Erratics take their name from the Latin
word errare, meaning ‘to wander.’ They are hugely significant, they mark the path of
prehistoric glacial movements as they can be traced back to their parent bedrock.” Visit
the Uintah County Heritage Museum to check out ‘Erratics’ which will be on display
through March 15th.
