Virtual Information Sessions & Events
Soulful Celebration
We are pleased to welcome you to this year's Virtual Soulful Celebration on Thursday, February 25, 2021 from 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm. Soulful Celebration is an event that was conceived and created by Black parents to celebrate Black history and culture, and has become a beloved annual event for the whole Vistamar community. This year students chose the theme of The Harlem Renaissance and The Golden Age to highlight this intellectual revival of African American art, literature, and culture. The students are curating the show to explore the key figures and cultural movements of the time - you don’t want to miss it!
You can expect an evening of wonderful music from students in Vistamar's music department and beyond, original poetry and more! To RSVP for the event, click here.
