MUSIC Matters presents Michigan's Got Talent: A Talent Show Celebrating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the Arts! Tune in to watch U-M students from across campus show off their unique talents. Following the event, YOU will have a chance to vote for your favorite acts to receive various superlative rewards and cash/prizes!

MUSIC Matters also wishes to address the lack of diversity and equitable representation in the performing arts and entertainment industries through our event. We will do this not only through the performances themselves, but also from appearances by our event host and various cameos from well-respected members of the entertainment industry and U-M community.

We are excited to announce that the event will feature appearances from the music group Two Friends, Vice President of Student Life Martino Harmon, two-time Olympic athlete Tiffany Porter, and more!

Tune in to Michigan's Got Talent on YouTube March 3rd at 8pm EST. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to parniam@umich.edu.
