Back by popular demand, Kevin Kling and Victor Zupanc return to the Guild Theater to bring the best of Minnesota summers to life through storytelling and music.
“Summer in Minnesota, the season when hot dish gives way to salads and ‘exposed flesh’ goes back to being skin. As a kid on the last day of school we were barefoot and out the door, school clothes became play clothes and teachers went back to…wherever teachers come from. There was bar-b-que, swimming lessons, family vacations, camping, riding bikes, carnivals. Then, as now, our state really knew how to do summer.” ——Kevin Kling
PLEASE JOIN KEVIN KLING AND VICTOR ZUPANC FOR AN ENTERTAINING AFTERNOON OF STORIES AND SONGS CELEBRATING SUMMER IN MINNESOTA.

Summer Camp at the Guild 2026: Our Town
What if kids were in charge? This summer, the Guild transforms into a city planning crew run entirely by youth! From the architecture of the skyline to the laws of the land, our campers are the lead architects, mayors, and visionaries. Together, they will build a collaborative cardboard installation that imagines what a community for kids, by kids might look like.
The Master Blueprint
This camp will focus on installation as an artform. Each group will use cardboard, mixed media, and 3D engineering to expand this growing masterpiece.
Registration is based on age going into the 2026-2027 school year.
The Citizens & Visionaries
Grades K – 2 | July 27–31, 9:00 AM – 11:30 AM $115
The Task: Create the community. Every town needs inhabitants! Our youngest campers will design the people, creatures, and characters who live in “Our Town.” In this city, perhaps imaginary friends walk among us!
Capacity: 10 registrants
