Two art galleries approached us at our information table during last weekend’s Kayenta Street Painting Festival offering to help get the word out by displaying our brochures about outdoor lighting health and safety issues in their galleries. They are Datura Gallery and Gallery 873.
Red Mountain Resort was already supporting our efforts with free meeting space, but the offer by the galleries got us thinking: Shouldn’t we be asking businesses in Ivins to help get our message out?
Events Committee members Lois Diehl and Tim Povlick got things started by printing out some posters and approaching businesses. In the past week alone, they along with Events Committee members Chris Haddad, Sally Tom, and board members Kai Reed and Sue Gordhammer approached other businesses that were glad to help. They are either displaying brochures and/or posters now, or will as soon as we get them printed and delivered.
Here are businesses that have agreed to help get our message out:
- Aragosta Restaurant
- Datura Gallery
- IBB Cyclery & Multisport
- Ice Box & Roundabout Grill
- Ivins Barber Shop
- Gallery 873
- Kayenta Homes & Properties
- Lightfoot’s Market
- Mystic Canyon Light Gallery
- Red Mountain Market
- Sacred Space Spa
- Troy’s Custom Body & Paint
- Tuacahn Center for the Performing Arts
- Xetava Gardens Cafe
- Zia Pottery Studio
Red Mountain Resort supports our mission by providing us with conference space and audio visual equipment for events. Even the Santa Clara Library is helping by displaying a poster about our Initiative. Plus, the lobby at Ivins City Hall displays a poster about the Initiative’s work and mission along with information brochures.
If you don’t see an Ivins business listed here, it’s probably only because we haven’t asked them yet. The positive response has been overwhelming.
If you have a business in Ivins, or know someone who does, let us know if you are willing to help by displaying a poster about our Initiative and/or brochures about outdoor lighting and lighting issues, and endorsement cards.
Or, if you have a business in Ivins but you don’t have clients coming to your premises, displaying a poster or brochures isn’t practical. In that case, we would appreciate if you could let us know that you support our mission.
And, if you would like to join a tremendous group of volunteers, just send us a note from the Contact us page.
