"Up With People" comes to Summit County, CO

Up with People, the international global education program for young adults, is coming to Summit County. While giving to communities through its community impact activities and shows, the program also addresses the real need to help young adults gain a global perspective, intercultural understanding, knowledge of worldwide issues, leadership skills and a sense of social responsibility.

The cast members will be performing a condensed version of the “Up with People Show”, a community celebration that features original and international songs and uses the universal languages of music and dance to inspire, energize and educate. The event serves to spark people to action by highlighting local non-profit organizations and the unique characteristics of communities they visit.

Up with People show on August 14 at 7:30pm at Summit High School. $10 for students and seniors and $15 for general admission.

Up with People’s visit to Summit County was made possible by generous sponsorships from Mark and Tracy Burke of Burke and Riley’s Irish Pub and the Colorado Mountain College. The show on Wednesday is thanks to the Main Street Station Hyatt.

Up with People provides young adults an international and intercultural experience that teaches servant leadership and uses the performing arts to deliver messages of hope and goodwill throughout the world. Up with People exists today to spark people to action in meeting the needs of their communities, countries and the world while building bridges of understanding as a foundation for world peace.
