DESCRIPTION: In 1996, the Folk Arts Program initiated a folklife survey with the intent to produce an automobile tour guide booklet with compact disc or cassette tape to be used as a cultural heritage product. In addition to sights and sounds, interviews were gathered about Sanpete's geography, vegetation, history industries, artistic traditions, ethnic and religious community celebrations, built environment, and contemporary lifestyles. The booklet and recording were produced by the Folk Arts Program and the Sanpete County Heritage Council, with funding provided by the Pioneer Communities/Main Street Program of the Utah State Division of Community Development. The series includes various media and documents related to the project.
