About

Thanksgiving Point is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in Lehi, Utah, operating one of the most diverse and expansive learning campuses in the intermountain West. Spread across two campuses, the destination includes seven distinct attractions designed to ignite curiosity and build confidence in children through hands-on STEM exploration. The Mountain America Museum of Ancient Life houses one of the world's largest collections of mounted dinosaur skeletons, with over 60 complete mounts, interactive paleo labs, and a Paleo Studio where visitors can excavate fossils using real paleontologist tools. Adjacent Mountain America Jurassic Jungle offers Utah's largest indoor prehistoric playground across five stories of interactive challenges. The Museum of Natural Curiosity provides over 400 hands-on exhibits for curious minds of all ages, emphasizing science, technology, and creative exploration. The Butterfly Biosphere is a conservatory home to thousands of butterflies and diverse insects from around the world, with daily STEM discovery programs. Curiosity Farms brings agriculture and animal science to life on a real working farm at the heart of Silicon Slopes, while the 50-acre Ashton Gardens—home to the largest manmade waterfall in America—connects visitors with the wonders of nature. All daily STEM Discovery Programs are free with venue admission or included with membership. Thanksgiving Point offers field trips, school programs, Girls in STEM programming, summer day camps, and an All-Access Pass covering all seven venues in a single day.
