Welcome to Elevate
CAMP 2025
Music is just the glue — Elevate is about transforming lives.
Elevate: A New Language of Hope
Elevate is not a typical music camp. It’s a bold reimagination of what education can feel like when joy, purpose, and inclusion come together. Created by international violinist Mika Nishimura and impact leader Katheryn Murillo, Elevate invites children from all walks of life into a week-long immersive experience rooted in music, movement, and leadership.
“Elevate is a bold experiment in child learning where children are not just taught, but seen, heard, and inspired to lead,” shares Mika Nishimura. “They emerge not only as performers, but as change makers.”
