Children and youth from across Miami-Dade County showed off their performing arts abilities in the Young Talent Big Dreams competition finals on May 10, with Tamerlan Guliyev taking home the grand prize with an inspiring dance performance. It was the culmination of the 15th year of this youth competition produced by Actors’ Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre and presented by The Children’s Trust which has encouraged thousands of young people to explore and demonstrate their talents through the performing arts.
For those both competing and watching, the talent competition is a spark that can ignite a lifelong love of the performing arts. And that spark doesn’t have to fade when the curtain closes. Each summer, The Children’s Trust supports a wide range of arts-based summer camps throughout Miami-Dade County designed to nurture every child’s creativity, build confidence, and fill their summer with music, movement, and imagination.
Creativity builds confidence
Through summer programs, kids can explore their artistic passions in environments that support self-expression. Whether learning choreography in dance class, trying out a new musical instrument, or bringing characters to life on stage, these experiences do more than entertain – they empower young people.
Some of the arts camps and enrichment programs that The Trust funds are specifically designed to help children build technical and critical life skills like teamwork, perseverance, and self-confidence. Activities like theater improvisation can enhance quick thinking and adaptability; dance promotes physical health and memory; and group performances strengthen communication and collaboration.
These programs also offer an important emotional outlet. Artistic expression has been shown to reduce stress and anxiety in young people, offering a safe, fun way to process their feelings and share their stories. Arts activities can help young people manage emotions and provide a release from the pressures of daily life.
A summer to remember
If your child loves to sing into a hairbrush, choreograph dances, or act out their favorite movie scenes, now is the time to encourage that passion. Summer arts camps give kids the tools, space, and support to explore what they love -with the added benefit of making new friends and building their social skills.
Whether it’s performing in a youth musical theater production, crafting original works in visual arts, or learning new styles in dance, there’s something for every interest. Plus, thanks to our long-standing partnership with the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs, all children – including those with disabilities – can access inclusive and enriching arts opportunities through initiatives like All Kids Included.
To find an arts program near you, visit TheChildrensTrust.org/FindAProgram and type in “arts,” “dance,” “music,” or another performing arts category that your child is interested in to see what’s available in your area. You can also search MiamiDadeArts.org for All Kids Included offerings and visit 211Miami.org/SummerCamps or call the 211 Helpline for hundreds of summer camps offered by The Trust, Miami-Dade County, and Miami-Dade County Public Schools.
This summer, give your child the gift of creativity – and the confidence that comes with it. Let’s celebrate their talents, nurture their dreams, and make this summer unforgettable.
