Visit Salt Lake

Salt Lake is the place where the Wasatch mountain peaks frame city streets. Sure, Salt Lake's famed for our winter powder ([four legendary ski resorts](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/skiing-snowboarding/) just 30 minutes from downtown), but that's just one season's story. Summer brings families [hiking through wildflower meadows](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/) before cooling off at a Jazz game or the Gateway fountains. Autumn paints our mountain canyons in gold, perfect for morning strolls that end at local coffee shops. Spring? That's when you might spot baby bison on Antelope Island before heading to the Eccles Theater for a Broadway show. Our soaring Wasatch Mountains rise dramatically from downtown Salt Lake, creating a place where every day offers both natural wonders and urban energy. And while we sit perfectly between the [national parks](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/state-national-parks/) with Yellowstone's geysers and Utah's red rock country, the real magic happens right here, where everyone can [discover the history](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/plan-your-visit/about-salt-lake/) of the city as they find their own rhythm between mountain adventure and city life.

“First Lady Abby Cox has used her platform to bring attention to children and families who too often go unseen,” said Shanna Draper, President of Utah Youth Village. “Her commitment to foster families and to strengthening communities throughout Utah embodies the spirit of the Helping Hand Award, and we are honored to recognize her this year.”The Helping Hand Gala is Utah Youth Village’s signature fundraising event. Proceeds help support programs that strengthen families, prevent child abuse and neglect, support foster youth, and help keep children safely with their families whenever possible. We truly believe that when we help one child, we help generations to come. The impact of that support can be seen in outcomes for the youth Utah Youth Village serves. Foster youth in Utah Youth Village’s care have improved their average GPA by nearly a full grade point - moving from a C average to a B average - demonstrating the difference that stability, individualized support and consistent relationships can make in a young person’s life.This calendar listing is brought to you by NowPlayingUtah.com, Utah's one-stop, online website for arts and entertainment events, powered by the Utah Cultural Alliance.
