Coming up this week!!!

Salt Lake Ballet Cooperative’s next show:

Sept 29th and 30th

at Sugarspace Arts Warehouse—

“Ruin”

with Columbia Jones

Sept 29th and 30th 7pm

Jones’ songs are earnest reflections of the everyday American experience paired with a sound that blends the best elements of Americana, Folk, Country, and Rock. His versatility as a musician is evident in the wide range of instruments and musical styles covered in his studio recordings, as well as onstage his on-stage performance, where gentle acoustic ballads can easily shift to a lively on-stage folk frenzy. Spectators of the One Man Band can expect to see him perform on guitar while kicking a bass drum, foot tambourine, and some live looping.


Ruin, is taking place at Sugarspace Arts Warehouse, located at 132 South 800 West SLC, UT 84104, on September 29th and 30th at 7:00pm.  Ruin is a live performance event.

Creating opportunities and art for our community.

DEXO’s mission is to create professional opportunities for local unestablished artists and to create original works for and about our Utah community.
Our vision is to create an infrastructure to facilitate an ever changing group of artists.  The infrastructure will secure income streams, implement marketing strategies, reach out to various communities and bring awareness to DEXO’s artistic mission.
