Here’s a bold statement: Creativity isn’t just a hobby—it’s a superpower. And now, Outschool, the leading online learning platform for kids and teens, is teaming up with Audrey Nuna, the powerhouse voice behind Mira in the chart-topping KPop: Demon Hunters soundtrack, to prove it. Together, they’re launching a Music Showcase designed to inspire young creators worldwide. But here’s where it gets exciting: this isn’t just another talent contest. It’s a celebration of self-expression, confidence, and the transformative power of performance. And this is the part most people miss: it’s also a chance for kids to step outside the classroom and into a global community of like-minded creatives.
Open to participants aged 6–18, the showcase invites young artists to submit performances in singing, dancing, instrumentals, or musical theater. Finalists not only win prizes worth up to $1,000 but also get to join a master class with Audrey herself. Imagine learning from someone whose fearless sound and sharp visual style have taken her from Spotify’s Global Chart to Oscar consideration—talk about inspiration! Audrey’s collaboration with Outschool highlights her passion for encouraging creative risk-taking. As she puts it, ‘I love seeing young people experiment and make stuff that feels real to them.’
But here’s where it gets controversial: In a world that often prioritizes standardized learning, is creativity being undervalued? Outschool’s CEO, Amir Nathoo, thinks so. He emphasizes, ‘Learning thrives when kids are inspired,’ and this showcase is a testament to that belief. By turning passions into learning experiences, Outschool aims to build not just skills, but self-confidence and community. This isn’t just the first contest of its kind—it’s the start of a movement to redefine how we nurture young talent.
Here’s the kicker: What if this showcase isn’t just about winning prizes, but about sparking a lifelong love for creativity? Participants can submit their original performances through the dedicated Outschool contest page, where they’ll also find full entry details, rules, and related classes in music, instrumental, and musical theater. Whether you’re a budding musician or a theater enthusiast, this is your chance to shine.
