Honoring the legacy of May Swenson, Swenson Park is a redevelopment of the site of Swenson’s original childhood home to create a gathering place that enhances the creative arts. The park aims to build bridges between the campus and nearby Logan neighborhoods, as well as foster understanding among diverse communities of thought.
May Swenson gained international success and acclaim as a progressive thinker who forged her own way, it is also clear from her work that her family and Cache Valley roots were sincerely important to her. It was here, in her childhood home, that May Swenson wrote her first poems.
