By Kat Fui May 16, 2021

Every Sunday, Macaroni Kid Salt Lake City shares at least five things to do with your kids over the coming week. 

This week there's so much going on that we couldn't choose just five. So here are Macaroni Kid Salt Lake City's top seven things to do in Salt Lake from May 17-23. Click on the links for all the details!

REMINDER: Please verify with event coordinators or businesses prior to attending events in case of changes since our original post.


1. Epigenetics & Environmental Toxins

Great, educational event for you and your teens or older children.

Have you ever heard of epigenetics? If you're interested in learning how to positively affect your posterity up to at least the next 3 generations, you should attend this presentation! Not gonna lie, I felt a little personally attacked by Dr. Anthony Jay's book subtitle, "How Estrogenics Are Making You Fat, Sick and Infertile." But if you'd like to learn how to get to the root of common, American health problems and prevent sickness long before it arises for yourself and your loved ones, make sure to attend either in person or online! The first 20 in-person attendees receive a free copy of Dr. Jay's book, "Estrogeneration."

2. A.I.R. Outdoor Art Workshops @ Red Butte Garden

Artsy event for you and your teens or older children.

Create beautiful ink line drawings inspired by Ellsworth Kelly's plant drawings. Best of all, you get to create beauty in a beautiful setting, and take it home with you!

3. Mom's Night Out @ The Museum

An event for new & expecting mamas! Discovery Gateway Children's Museum is unveiling their new and updated Mother's Nursing Room.
