Education in Zion illustrates the principle on which education in the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ is based—that learning is for the whole soul, the spirit as well as the intellect. The stories in the gallery bear witness to the sacrifice and the innovation that characterize the Church’s efforts to educate its members from its earliest days to the present.

I had a very meaningful experience at Education in Zion, particularly during a section we visited for our western square dance class. The setting was beautiful and thoughtfully designed, creating a peaceful and uplifting atmosphere. I was especially touched by the spirit there—it added a deeper, more reflective dimension to the experience. The combination of the inspiring environment and the class activity made it a memorable and impactful visit.

This was a neat little museum that I got to check out in the BYU campus via the Joseph F smith building it basically showcases the history of BYU and how it came to be as well as showcasing the importance of the Mormons in Utah when it comes to attending BYU. All in all I was glad I to check out this little museum out and I will definitely check it out again in the future.
