End of the Summer Showcase
OYC Miami and Honey Shine’s Summer Emerald Dream Showcase was the ideal conclusion to an unforgettable summer. The youth displayed their talents through music, song, dance, cheer, and art.
Before the show began, the audience had the opportunity to admire the beautiful and creative art on display and enjoy some delicious treats while they waited for the show to start. During the show, students and staff were presented with custom awards made in our STEM lab, to honor individuals for their great work throughout the summer.
We are so proud of our kids as they poured their hearts out on stage and showcased some original performances.
