Moab’s latest sculpture installation comes from Justin Tyler Tate, the MARC’s 2022 artist-in-residence. Made of materials sourced from the local waste stream, the piece is incredibly interactive and intended to emphasize play as a source of power. “I like giving people an opportunity to embrace their curiosity,” says Tate. “Because that’s what I like doing.” Plus, we speak with a scientist working on a new solution for uranium-contaminated groundwater. And later, a report on the death of a Hollywood legend with deep roots in our region.
