A night of nothing more than celebrating the passion of area teens and their performing art
Ali Coulter, a 10th grade student at Milford High School, was a finalist in the 2015 Hold On Talent Slam.
In front of an audience of 350, more than $3,500 cold cash was awarded to honor the performing art of area teens. There was no entry fee for the contestants who sent audition tapes for the opportunity to compete under the bright stage lights, and before highly qualified judges selected for their varied expertise.
