Touted as a program of children who can dance so others can walk, the 2010 Art with Heart concert will be held at 7 p.m. today and Saturday with an additional matinee at 2 p.m. Saturday at the Covey Center for the Arts, 425 W. Center Street in Provo. Tickets are $20 and can be purchased at www.coveycenter.org or purchased at the box office Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Donations can also be made directly online at support.shrinershospitals.org.
Since 2002, the three dance studios have joined together to benefit Shriners Hospital. The two-night celebration will showcase some of the best young dancers in the country. Over the years the young dancers have raised more than $200,000 for the hospital.
"This is one of our kids' favorite things to do," said Allison Thornton, owner of The Dance Club. "The hospital brings kids to the concert where they get to tell their story."
Thornton said The Dance Club, based in Orem, also supports Shriners kids camp "Unlimbited." The summer and winter camps are for kids who have lost limbs. They come together to share experience skiing, rafting and more.
Shriners Hospital for Children in Salt Lake City is a 40-bed pediatric orthopedic hospital, research and teaching center providing comprehensive medical, surgical and rehabilitative care to children with orthopedic conditions. The hospital is staffed and equipped to deal most pediatric orthopedic conditions, except for acute trauma.
