Passion Over Poverty YOUTH & Young Adult Talent Showcase
POP Artist Group | Helping Youth/Young Adults Discover a Passion for the Arts
Our successful partnership with UnIDMV, Mikio University, DPR, and Johnson Memorial Baptist Church has generously helped local teens and young adults discover and eagerly embrace their genuine passion. The past 10 memorable years have been remarkable; discovering precisely their lifelong passion is one of the most extraordinary gifts to oneself. We've willingly given local youth and young adults across the local metropolitan area an elevated platform of artist etiquette. starting with free auditions, creative workshops, show rehearsal, TV and radio exclusive interviews, social promotion and branding, and a show with an engaged audience. #POP passionately advocates for teen dating violence, gun violence, bullying, mental health, and black history. We are efficiently privileged to work with over 200 youths and young adults (ages 5–24).
We felt amazing hosting #POP at the record store for the first time in the history of the showcase.
