Topanga Youth Services Talent Show goes on!
Due to the restrictions of gathering, TYS is hosting the community youth’s talent acts online this year. Even though we are eager to get back to our stage, we hope you will join in watching the performance videos through TNT’s Facebook page. Tune in on November 8 at 2 p.m. to facebook.com/TopangaNewTimes. The show will also be available on topanganewtimes.com/tntv afterwards!
We will have a variety of recorded acts from Topanga kids, including Emma Farkas, Anika Williams, Jack Pedroza, Lola Momoa, Mia Klemp, Jude Klemp, Elias Klemp, Jaz Bennassar, Kenza Carolan, Rafaella Kistler, Marcel Kistler, Miles and Logan Zaud, Aurora Finetti, Chloe Gaines and Julian Najah, as well as some “from the Vault” acts from years past (including Anika and Brodie Beauvais and Gabbi Beauvais, Nate Cambras, Leela Ladnier, Slater Anton, Brothers Gage, Valentina Silardi and Aurora Finetti)! This year’s show will be MC’d by Jude, Mia and Elias Klemp.
Join us (however you can) in a celebration of the youth of the Canyon that is sure to bring some smiles!
