Chase Home Museum

"Folk Art has a whole new meaning after being at Chase House Museum. Pulling pieces of my own heritage together, and seeing what others also feel that represents, is amazing. I had an idea, but no broader picture, of just how rich, beautiful, and interesting, the people in Utah are, and the museum, as well as the different "do it yourself" projects, are free to the public."

"Gorgeous little free museum within walking distance (just a few minutes) of the parking lot in Liberty Park. There is no elevator to the second floor, it's a narrow historic home, and there's construction blocking access to the sidewalk in the parking lot, so I would say it's not currently an ideal handicap accessible spot. The contemporary folk art collection is tiny but gorgeous and well curated, and I was happy to note a lot of female artists. The bulk of the collection seems to be indigenous Native American art, but upstairs one of the rooms was more international and surprisingly varied. There are 4 rooms total. My favorite piece was the hand- embroidered Hmong History Quilt. I do wish the artist's name were known since it's an exquisite and massive work that must have taken her years, and she was only identified by her brother's name. Perhaps that's a cultural naming tradition, but if that is the case it would be nice to have the explanation posted."

"This museum is just four rooms, but there’s a lot of interesting things to see. Enjoy the beautiful handcrafted items such as this extraordinary quit with cattle brands and this European style hand painted wooden bowl. Enjoy walking this mid 19th century home located in the middle of the park."

"I was waiting for my kid to finish lessons near by and figured I’d stop and check out this place. It’s a unique little collection. Its free and worth the quick stop if you’re already going to be in the park."

"Perfectly sized for lunch break viewing. Great variety in the displays between the 3 galleries. Honestly it left me wishing it was twice as big"
