Aerial Arts of Utah has created an emergency donation fund!

https://shop.aerialartsofutah.com/gifts/emergency-donation-fund

Today Aerial Arts of Utah needs your support.

We need to reach our goal of raising $5,000 during the COVID-19 shutdown of our beloved studio. This will allow us to keep our facility current on rent, insurance and utilities- so we can reopen our doors when it is safe.

We are also exploring offering a variety of online classes to the benefit of students, staff and Aerial Arts of Utah.  Stay tuned!

We have applied for funding from the SBA (small business disaster loan assistance), both for basic costs and to keep our staff employed-  and continue to await confirmation for these loans.

We love our students, staff, and friends of AAofU, and are doing everything we can to be able to keep up and be there for this wonderful community!  We look forward to developing new creative adventures with you, both now in a remote setting and in the future, all together again. Your support at this time is both extremely appreciated and very much needed!

We need you, now!

Thank you and please stay safe out there!
