Auction for Education Donation Form

Auction for Education brings our community together to support arts and humanities learning for all ages. Your participation helps fund workshops, classes, and school programs that nurture creativity and critical thinking in Zion Canyon. Every ticket, paddle raise, and donated item directly supports local artists, student experiences, and year‑round educational programs.

Hosted by Z-Arts in collaboration with Springdale Elementary School, with one primary goal: to raise money to support the school's art and music program. The Auction provides matching funds for an art and music grant through the Beverly Taylor Sorenson Foundation.

Bid on amazing art, adventure and recreation packages, special gifts, and more—generously donated by local artists, galleries, and businesses supporting youth education.

Enjoy a cash bar hosted by the Zion Canyon Brew Pub. During the Auction, the Springdale Elementary PTO will host a fundraiser featuring a lovely selection of food sponsored by The Bit & Spur Restaurant and Saloon. Live musical guest Chris Zollinger will play the Handpan.

Silent auction bidding begins at 6:00 p.m.; the live auction starts at 7:00 p.m.

Sponsors: Z-ARTS: Zion Canyon Arts & Humanities Council, Zion Canyon Brew Pub, Cable Mountain Lodge, Bit & Spur Restaurant and Saloon

DEADLINE EXTENDED! A FEW SPOTS LEFT!

Membership is enormously important to the sustainability of Z-Arts. There are several different Z-Arts membership levels (Individual, Family, Artist, Artist Group, Business, and Benefactor.)

Memberships give back to the community.  Our local non-profit organization relies on small grants, memberships, sponsorships, and donations to provide quality arts and humanities programming within the Zion Canyon.  Your membership also includes discounts at some ticketed events, workshop fees, as well as receiving the “Here’s Z Buzz” weekly newsletter email. 

Memberships help demonstrate to granting agencies that Z-Arts has the support of its community.  Each year we hope to do more to enrich and educate the canyon communities with the wonderful art all around us, and your support will help us to continue this quest.  As a reminder, your entire membership and contributions are tax deductible and is good for one year.
