KCPW's Public Square Airs Live Weekdays @ 11, Repeats Weeknights @ 7

How much do you know about the state you live in and the historical landmarks that show its history?  Plus a new online tool to easily find and support the arts. The Public Square talks with Nancy Boskoff of the Salt Lake City Arts Council and Kirk Huffaker from the Utah Heritage Foundation about the fun places to take your family to learn about the unique history of Utah and to get a little culture this summer.

Plus, how is Utah's economy fairing in the national economic downturn?  Is your money safe in Utah's regional banks?  Dr. Kelly Mathews, executive vice president and economist for Wells Fargo, enters The Public Square.

Lastly, should Utah end the prohibition of medical marijuana and industrial hemp? A rally to do just that will be held Saturday at the Capitol. The Utah Coalition against Prohibition enters the Public Square.
