But the structure was finally completed in 1863, including its mural of Joseph Smith, commissioned by Brigham Young and painted by Daniel Waggelund.
The Bountiful Tabernacle was dedicated by Elder Heber C. Kimball on 14–15 March 1863. Church leaders including Brigham Young and "150 persons and 100 horses" stayed overnight at the nearby Anson Call residence to celebrate the completion and dedication. [2]
