ST. GEORGE — The Blue Butterfly House – a nonprofit organization created to build a safe facility for children to have a neutral location for court-ordered supervised visits with parents or other loved ones – is hosting a benefit concert Friday at the Dixie State University Dolores Doré Eccles Fine Arts Center in St. George at 7:30 p.m., to raise funds to help build the facility.
The benefit concert will honor David Heisler, a father that was allegedly kidnapped and left in the Arizona desert one year ago by the mother of his daughter and her friends after he was awarded custody.

That event acted as the catalyst for two women, Debbie Heisler (David Heisler’s stepmother) and Suzun Abbott, to come together to form the Blue Butterfly House.
Abbott and Debbie Heisler will share the mission of the Blue Butterfly House at the benefit concert which will also feature performances from area vocal and dance groups including Soul What!? Sauny J., Ami Gent and No Limit Dance Studio.
Tickets are $20 in advance and can be purchased online. Tickets are $25 at the door. Proceeds from the event will go directly toward building the Blue Butterfly House facility in Southern Utah.
