She hopes her career path can inspire many of the students on the SUU campus to pursue similar trajectories, and the museum’s student-centered experiential learning environment is part of what drew her to the job. “I find that museums are rejuvenating and even have a calming effect. Museums help us see the world through a different lens. They show us other perspectives, cultures, and periods of time all in one place. The way that I feel about art and museums is something that I want for everyone–no matter their background!”
Farling says she is also a big fan of the outdoors and the performing arts, making Cedar City an ideal location. “My husband and I have traveled to Utah many times. We love the outdoors: hiking, camping, fly fishing, and National Parks. We started a National Park passport a couple of years ago and quickly filled the Rocky Mountain Region because it is our favorite. Zion National Park is one of the most amazing places! In addition to getting to work at SUMA, I cannot wait to see every production at the Utah Shakespeare Festival. I also look forward to taking my National Park passport to Cedar Breaks National Monument for a new stamp!”
