Helper Arts, Music & Film Festival
The Helper Arts, Music and Film Festival
The Helper Arts, Music and Film Festival has a rich history of twenty plus years bringing the arts to not only Helper, but surrounding areas as well. The Helper Arts, Music and Film Festival’s mission is to encourage art and culture in Carbon County, support the local artist community, stimulate and enrich the local economy through the arts, and to educate and give access to art for everyone, regardless of income level or art experience. The Festival endeavors to not only put on a great Festival, but to bring the arts to the community throughout the year as much as possible.
Supported by a committed group of volunteers, the Festival continues to evolve in order to provide a well-rounded experience to all patrons including but not limited to music, visual arts, photography, ceramics, woodworking, film and performance art. Over the course of the third weekend in August, patrons can enjoy great music, catch a film and purchase fine art! The Festival’s original purpose was focused on revitalizing Main Street and supporting local artisans. That focus has expanded into bringing art to local area schools via the SmART Program. Working closely with the Carbon School Board, a theme is selected and various students are selected to participate in creating art works displayed during the Festival.
The Festival now has a permanent home located at 69 South Main. This building is the oldest on Main Street and provides a permanent home for records, serves as a meeting location and is the management hub during the course of the Festival. This has been a significant upgrade for the Festival and allows for a centralized location before, during and after the Festival. This was a much-needed next step in maturing the Festival and getting to the “next level” in regards to management.

This camp takes students on a deep-dive exploration of video games and how they are designed. We will use Scratch, Python and Arduino to make some amazing video games. At the end of the week, campers will create an interactive video game controller out of cardboard and tape that connects to the game that they designed. This camp will appeal to new coders just starting out as well as those who have already made a few games.
*In the event the camp does not receive minimum enrollment, the camp will not run and you will be issued a full refund.

Anime Banzai 2019
Anime Banzai is Utah’s premiere anime convention! Every year, Utah Anime Promotions (UAP) participates in and hosts various cultural and educational events. The main event is the Anime Banzai Convention held over three days in October of each year. Presented by UAP, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, this three-day weekend is filled with anime, manga, gaming, Asian culture, guests, panels, games, contests, kids’ events, viewing rooms, an Artist’s Alley, an Exhibitor’s Hall, silent auctions for various charities, two dances, and so much more. This year Anime Banzai will be held at the Davis Conference Center in Layton, Utah from Friday, October 18th through Sunday, October 20th.
UAP and Anime Banzai work hand-in-hand with several charity organizations. Throughout the year at the Monthly Pre-Con Events and at the Anime Banzai Convention itself, attendees collect soda pop tabs (or tabs from soup cans, or wherever else they can be found) for the Ronald McDonald House at Primary Children’s Hospital. Also throughout the year, attendees donate money and non-perishable foods for the Utah Food Bank. At the Anime Banzai Convention, there are two silent auctions being held for two different charities – the Best Friends Animal Society and Utah Autism Give.
