Where everyone is seen and creativity soars!
VISTO (adjective)
Visto | vì·sto : to be seen and known
VISTO is the first performing arts camp of its kind in Canada. It launches its mission with the same values and standards as the longstanding theatre company, K2K Productions.
We believe that every child, regardless of their experience or background can be transformed through theatre and faith. We strive for every student to find a place to belong, discover where they fit in and their purpose. We share who God is and His promises. And we do all this through the common interests of storytelling, music, dance and drama.

PERFORMING ARTS CAMP
by K2K PRODUCTIONS
for Grade SK - Grade 8
Our Camp Philosophy
Our mission is to create an experience of excellence that supports campers age 5 to 14 years as individuals and artists. Through song, dance and faith-based activities, we want to ensure that each camper experiences a sense of belonging and purpose as they grow in their understanding of who God created them to be and an exceptional experience in the arts.
Weekly camps provide students with the opportunity to build friendships and accept one another for the gifts they've been given. We create a sense of belonging and security through face-to-face relationships, staff trained leadership, a 4:1 ratio of students to leaders, participation and safe boundaries.
What To Expect At Camp
Weekly camp experiences will be dynamic, enthusiastic, empowering, reflective and creative outlets for everyone. Although there is a 3-week cycle to the themes being presented in July & August, each week will be unique in it's own way - just like each one of us!
Each day students will be learning choreography, songs and lyrics to some of the BEST music you can find! These songs are significant in that they may be familiar or unfamiliar to some but take on a whole new meaning when combined with VISTO!
Every camper will have access to resources on our Backstage portal to become familiar with songs and have fun! VISTO's creative team will create synergy and build confidence in all campers and counsellors as they explore and build skills! Daily Challenges, enriching conversations, high-impact activities and crafts will be entwined within the days while allowing for moments of reflection.
What Campers Will Do
Campers will arrive by 9:00am to be signed in and welcomed! They will be introduced to a small group of similar age campers and immediately start learning more about each other. These groups will be consistent each day and sometimes combined with others for dancing, singing and camp themes.
Camp shirts and any "Add-On Orders" (hoodies, bucket hats, tshirts, water bottles) will be distributed on Day 1 for your enjoyment! With all that to say, VISTO staff will be ready to inspire campers day-after-day.
The momentum and opportunity to perform and share talent will lead to VISTO's Showcase Performance & Celebration on Friday afternoon of each week.
It Takes a Village
With safety being the utmost importance to us, our staff will come to camp equipped with two weeks of training where they will not only build familiarity and confidence in the weekly programming, safety policies and mentoring, but will also complete our trusted Plan to Protect certification.
With a 4:1 ratio of students to leaders, we want you to rest assured that your child is SEEN and safe, physically and emotionally all day long.
VISTO's SHOWCASE PERFORMANCE & CELEBRATION allows our community, family and friends to surround young people and cheer them on as they share their talent, insight and a message of hope. This event allows campers to build their confidence even further and with their peers while being reminded that they are created for a purpose.
Camp Location: 800 Juliana Dr., Woodstock, ON
Cost: $295 / week
