Kaleo Arts is a movement where art, joy & community collide.
We believe each child is uniquely made with the ability to influence the world around them. We’re giving kids a voice and platform to use their creative expression to lift others up.
Our Approach
Our one-of-a-kind performing arts programming brings students from different communities together to develop music, dance, drama, and songwriting skills while building confidence and character. Our desire is for every child we work with to know they are valuable, creative, and capable of changing the world for the better.
“Pontiac School District is excited to benefit from such a positive program that has had a tremendous impact on our students in terms of confidence, attendance and teamwork. This program directly aligns with our district's vision for culture and climate instilling the programs qualities that enable our students to become great citizens. Thank you again for your continued support.”

Community
Kaleo (KA-LEH’-OH) means “to invite” and inviting is at the core of all we do. Inviting kids to do things they’ve never done before, inviting different communities to come together, and inviting people to use their talents for a life changing purpose.
