Youth In Action: Unleash the Star Within!

Annual Talent Showcase for Youth Ages 5-16

YIATS is an annual talent showcase celebrating the diverse skills of youth ages 5-16. We provide a platform for young artists, athletes, and performers across four divisions (primary, junior, intermediate, senior) to showcase their talents in vocal, instrumental, fine art, speech, poetry, dance, track & field, basketball, soccer and acting.
