“The fourth annual Got Talent? competition was created to give K-12 youth and passionate adults who are interested in the performing arts an opportunity to experience a professional audition and a final show,” Ohmer explained. “Each participant that auditions is given feed back during the audition process by the judges that are professionals in various fields in the performing arts such as musicians, talent agents, dancers, theatrical performers and music producers. The event is set in three stages: The call for talent (open auditions), the semifinals (or call back) and the final show. The adult and K-12 winners of the final show each will receive a cash prize of $1,000 (sponsored by Genisys Credit Union and Feldman Automotive Group) in order to help them move forward in their future performance career. In addition, there are three category winners that receive $100 gift cards also supplied by Genisys.
She added that the event was “created and presented by The Huron Valley Council for the Arts (HVCA), Huron Valley Recreation and Community Education (HVRCE), with support from Milford Music, Genisys Credit Union, Aladdin Print and Image Center, Feldman Automotive Group, LaFontaine Automotive Group and The Village Engravers of Milford.… Proceeds generated through ticket sales, sponsorships, and ad placement will go to support the community programming provided by HVCA and the HVRCE as we collaborate to expand arts and cultural education in our region.”
