Drumming solo performance from Central Oklahoma Juvenile Center

The PbS Kids Got Talent Contest serves as a testament to the transformative impact of the arts on the lives of young people in juvenile justice programs. By embracing the power of artistic expression, the contest offers a unique opportunity for system-involved young people to showcase their skills, while simultaneously encouraging their personal growth, self-confidence and positive engagement with the world around them.
