All students are going to see The Power of Creativity: A Journey Through Storytelling, Exploration, and Hope at the Washington Performing Arts Center in Downtown Olympia. There is no cost to you! This field trip is part of our curriculum.

Faculty and Admin Staff will be driving students in Intercity Vans. We ask that all students arrive on-time at school, as we will be leaving to go the the performance promptly at 10am. We will be returning to school by lunchtime.

Here's what to know about the performance:
Award-winning photographer, journalist, and author Kike Calvo is renowned for his extraordinary ability to bridge culture, environment, and visual storytelling. He has traveled to over 120 countries, capturing everything from belugas in the Arctic to traditional dances in Vanuatu. His work has been featured in National Geographic, New York Times, Rolling Stone, and more. In this engaging presentation, he explores how creativity can be a catalyst for connection, storytelling, and meaningful change. From documenting remote villages to diving with great white sharks, from defying odds as an author to inspiring thousands of children in the Amazon, Kike shares the invaluable lessons he has learned along the way.

Land Acknowledgement

NOVA is located on the ancestral lands of the Steh-Chass band of the Squaxin Island Tribe and Nisqually Indian Tribe, who have long been stewards of the region’s waters, plants, and animals. The southernmost point of the Salish Sea, these lands were—and still are—a place of gathering, trade, and community for many Coast Salish peoples. We recognize that all who are not Salish peoples are visitors here. We commit to join these peoples to share their history, build relationships, increase representation, and restore the living world around us.
