The Peacock Theater at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts was energized with the creative spirit
of several hundred Miami-Dade high school students, parents, teachers and arts supporters on Saturday, May
15th, 2010 as the national YoungArts program launched its new regional laboratory initiative, YoungArts Miami.

Open to Miami-Dade high school juniors and seniors in nine disciplines in the visual, literary and performing arts,
YoungArts Miami offers participants informative monthly workshops; the opportunity to meet their artistic peers;
access to resources and scholarships in the arts; career guidance; portfolio development; and other
unique experiences including master classes, showcase performances and exhibitions.

During the Saturday kick-off celebration, students were encouraged to register for the prestigious national
YoungArts program, which includes opportunities for recognition as one of 150 YoungArts finalists, and a
chance to be nominated to the White House Commission on Presidential Scholars as one of 20 Presidential
Scholars in the Arts. The highlight of the day was an hour-long original performance by YoungArts
alumni, who traveled from many parts of the country (and even from abroad).
