For the Love of Satan's kitten!
The date of the Goddess Gala 2020 Saturday July 11th. Tickets are $20.00 and there is limited seating. Why the goddess theme? Why the gala part?
I figure if the goddesses gather to create and share their art, then we should all pull that energy together with our friends and family and lovers of belly dance everything! Let us gather that energy and push it toward helping others!

The Christmas Box International is the charity we will be supporting at the Goddess Gala.
The Christmas Box International helps children and young adults who are taken out of abusive homes, or there are other domestic issues that make it hard for them to have a quality childhood. In other cases maybe they are runaways or maybe in and out of the juvenile system. Whatever the case may be, I am sure these kids like to have cool stuff. Please see the wish list and bring a new item with you to donate.
We have a “new” item donation drop box. Let us overfill the box with the things these kids need. Cool stuff! Stuff you would want your own kid to have. Or a kid you know. Some of them will be turning 18 soon and will not be able to stay in the system any longer. They will be faced with homelessness. Please do not forget to bring a new item with you for The Christmas Box International.
Wish List Items
I know how hard it is to transition into adulthood when there is no foundation or structure growing up. Without those two things combined with domestic violence, or neglect, it is hard to have any quality of childhood. When I was 13 years old I ran away. I left from the July 24th parade and came home on Halloween. My mom thought I was dead. No one was really looking for me either (probably because we lived in the Housing Authority). But long stories short, between that time and 17 years old, I had been to the youth services many times, I was also in juvenile detentions from Oakland CA to Reno NV, from Blanding to SLC. And I stayed in this foster home where there was a peep-hole in the bathroom wall…um…ahem…yeah. (I will stop there). Sometimes foster homes are not a kids replacement home, they are other peoples homes, like strangers homes. Very uncomfortable, I chose to stay with friends after that lameness. That’s how I feel about that.
Older and younger kids will benefit from the Goddess Gala. The wish list is categorized into age groups. These Kids will get some of the things they need and we will raise money for them at this gala. They will get the cash donations they need for their activities, food and care.
To raise money for The Christmas Box International we will be selling candies. Candies of awesomeness! With every candy purchase you are automatically entered into one of the greatest prize drawings ever! We have had the most fabulous and giving people donate the most stellar prizes! So bring your cash! 100% candy cash goes to the charity!
In addition to that, our saxophone busker and bartender will be donating 100% of there tips to The Christmas Box International! Proceeds from beer sales will also go the charity!
So we should all dress up for this class act of community love! We recommend wearing your cocktail attire or Las Vegas best! Let’s overfill the new item donation box, buy lots of candies and beer, and watch Utah’s talented goddesses take our breath away!
Dinner too! Damn it just keeps getting better.
Now let’s just get rid of this pesky virus and everything will be just about perfect!
