Talent galore in rural areas
The purpose of the event was to help the youth showcase their talents and create a platform to expose them to potential sponsors and professional coaching.
A successful and exciting talent show was held at Mahushu Uniting Reformed Church (URC) on Saturday June 1 by Leon Sambo and friends.
Their purpose with the event was to help the youth in their community to showcase and display their talents, but at the same time to create a platform to expose them to potential sponsors and hopefully get professional coaching.
“We have noticed that such a gap exists in the rural parts of the Lowveld,” Leon said. “Our young talented people have nowhere to show their talents as most talent competitions do not usually reach the rural parts of the community.”
He promised that with the help of TnT Creations, a modelling agency, the winners and models who came out tops in this show would get professional modelling coaching, branding as well as a portfolio.
The other winners will get grooming from Joseph Gbenle, an event organiser from Mbombela. He will also organise gigs for them. “We also owe many thanks to Pick n Pay Hazyview for sponsoring the event with drinks,” Leon said.
The winners were Young Stars, with DJ Small BK in second place, and Yolanda Mamvura was the Face of Innovative Talent.
