In the 1970's and 80's we worked hard to fund and restore the Co-op and Granary. The Sanpete Community Theater held the first Scandinavian Festival under a parachute between the two buildings in 1976 as a fund raiser for the restoration. Please continue to ensure the integrity of these historic buildings.
The granary is a unique program that could be expanded to not only help preserve historic buildings but build Ephraim as a center for art in the valley.
The Granary is a historic facility that needs to be preserved. Throughout the years I have witnessed how many cultural events had taken place in this facility that I think is important to the Ephraim community.
The Granary Arts is an important social outlet for me. I think they bring amazing activities to the community. I have brought my parents to these events when they come and visit, and they've really enjoyed it. I think they will do great things with these buildings.
Granary Arts has demonstrated and proven itself to be a committed and trusted local partner in ensuring long-term historic preservation and ongoing public access and enjoyment of these buildings and properties. Ephraim City and the surrounding region will be fortunate to count on their vision, dedication, and resources toward maintaining the integrity and developing future uses of this critically valuable heart of our community. Thank you, Mayor Scott and Ephraim City Council, for your partnership with and support for Granary over the years, and for working with the organization toward finding the best long-term vision for protecting, preserving, and using these wonderful buildings and space into the future!

I want to see the buildings preserved, cared for and be open to public use. I was one of the original participants in restoration and I know how much work it is to raise funds and operate the buildings. I think private ownership is a great solution with covenants that protect the interest of both the city and the private owner.
