Event is Tuesday, October 20, 2026 - 6:00 p.m.

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. 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
