Advocacy, support at heart of 2018 Youth Arts Celebration April 21 at Lyric Theatre

Thursday, April 5, 2018

The second annual Youth Arts Celebration, presented by The Lyric League, will be at 7 p.m. Saturday, April 21, 2018 at The Lyric Theatre. This talent showcase was very successful in its first year and this year promises to be even better.

More than 120 children from first- to 12th-grade auditioned over two days. Eighteen acts with a total of 61 children were selected to perform at the Celebration. The evening will highlight the amazing and diverse talents of the children as they perform Indian dance, baton twirling, Irish Step, piano, ballet, singing, flute, strings, guitar and much more.

The Youth Arts Celebration was established to provide local emerging student artists with well-deserved recognition and a performance opportunity on the historic Lyric stage. The event also is intended to raise public awareness of The Lyric Theatre’s Arts & Education programming as The Lyric continues to advocate and showcase the impact arts education has had on the Treasure Coast as evidenced by artist master classes and residencies, Discovery Series for Young Audiences, Family Fun Programming and Lyric’s AWESOME! Summer Camp.
