Santa Barbara Trapeze Co. (SBTC) invites community members to spend Friday, July 15 soaring and supporting during a free event to benefit Santa Barbara Humane. The event will take place 5-8 p.m. at Plaza Vera Cruz, 110 E Cota St.
Attendees will dine on tacos and learn about Santa Barbara Humane’s services while watching a spectacular trapeze show. There will be opportunities for attendees to try taking flight themselves, guided by a team of professionals.
Located in the dog-friendly park at Plaza Vera Cruz off Cota and Haley streets, Santa Barbara Trapeze Co. provides aerial fitness opportunities for beginners to experts. Its recreation is open to all ages, including a summer camp for kids that is going on now.
“Santa Barbara Trapeze Co is proud to partner with SB Humane for our July community event at Plaza Vera Cruz,” said co-owner Randy Kohn. “We were so flattered when the team ‘slid into our DMs’ and asked us if we were interested in a collaboration.
“We hope that this month’s event is the first of many and serves as a model for us to be agents of change and welcome more residents of Santa Barbara into our community.”
The evening’s festivities are all donation-based, with opportunities to make a contribution to Santa Barbara Humane throughout the event. Supporters can also give online at sbhumane.givecloud.co/trapeze.
Partnerships like the one with Santa Barbara Trapeze Co. are essential to Santa Barbara Humane’s mission: to be champions for animals and the people who love them, Santa Barbara Humane said. Santa Barbara Humane serves as an open-admission shelter for the community, providing a safe place for homeless animals, regardless of age, health or circumstance.
