Rural Summer Day Camps

Very Merry Theatre aims to provide affordable and accessible theatre arts summer camp programming in 3 rural VT communities. While VMT's home base is in Burlington, through this grant we aim to advance our mission to build strong, inspired youth and communities by offering camps in locations where access to theatre arts programming is less available. We intend to accomplish this goal through building sustainable partnerships with community members in three rural locations. More broadly we hope to enrich the lives of children and families through offering high quality and enriching summer camp experiences where children can make friends, develop literacy, leadership, and social skills, and experience the joy and magic of storytelling.
