Let's
Support Our Talented Youth |
And Not Ignore Those |
Who Are Making A Positive Contribution |
The Talent Hunt program of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. is one of several national programs designed to identify and support youth of our nation and the world. The program was conceived in 1945 by members in North Carolina, and was born out of the unequal opportunity afforded to some American youth to develop and give full expression to their talents.
The program has evolved over the years, and now only includes high school students who can participate in 5 talent categories, which include: vocal, instrumental, creative movement, speech, and art.
The program was originally a demonstration, but evolved into a competition event in 1979 with the awarding of money for first, second, and third place winners at that time.
The local chapter winners are sent to the District Talent Hunt, which is also a competitive event. The International event, however, is a demonstration that takes place on conclave years.
