Talent Showcase Night
Activities for Youth in the Church
Talent showcase night in your church
is a great time to have kids of allages show their talents. Even adults can participate in this activity. God hastold us to share our talents with others and we should do so.Divide your church talents into 3 areas. One would be stage talent. If yourchurch does not have a stage area use the dinning hall or social hall ofyour church. Encourage all youth both inside and outside of your churchfamily who play an instrument, sing, dance, write, do a sport, to be part ofthis talent group. Set up the order so that the audience is not listening to 5people in a row play the piano. Spread the talent out throughout the night.Encourage the audience to clap and cheer.
Have a table talent area where youth can display their artwork, craft work,and other talents that can be considered similar. Have nice table clothes onthe tables and have the youth print their name and a brief description ofwhat their table talent is on a folded 3X5 card to display with their talent sothat everyone can see.
A third area of talent you could include is a baking talent area. Children andadults can make their favorite dessert and put it on a dessert table. Onceagain, have the bakers put their name and a description of their dessert ona folded 3X5 card to display near their dessert they made. This type oftalent serves two purposes. One, people get to show their favorite dessertthey made and two, once the talent showcase is done, you've got dessertfor everyone for a fellowship time!
Having awards, trophies, or ribbons to give for everyone who participated inyour
Talent Showcase Night
at Church is a personal choice. This shouldnot be turned into a "competition", but giving everyone a ribbon forparticipating would be a nice jester and it will be something they will have toremember the evening.
