After 14 years Canton Idol will have its final competition April 16th at the
Timken Early College Campus.  Auditions are scheduled for Saturday, March
12, 2 pm at the Arts in Stark Education Center, 1014 Cleveland Avenue, NW.

 

Canton Idol has auditioned over one-thousand individuals.  Some of them have
formed bands, produced CD's and DVDs.  Some contestants have moved to
Branson, Nashville and other major cities to further their careers.

 

In addition to being involved in the competition, participants have been
given an opportunity to sing at various venues that include Hall of Fame
events, Fairs, Church and community events, weddings, and many more.

 

Betty Smith, founder of Canton Idol, decided to end this competition in
keeping with the American Idol that is in its final year.  After
consultation with Brad and Christa Crozier, co-coordinators for Canton Idol,
it was decided that 2017 will involve a singing competition for individuals
and groups, a name has yet to be determined.

 

Canton Idol age categories are 7 - 10; 11 - 13; 14 - 18; 19- 28 and 29 and
over.

 

Additional information can be obtained from their Facebook page, Canton Idol
Auditions 2016 or Canton Idol and Friends.

 

Canton Idol is a fundraiser for EN-RICH-MENT, a not for profit program that
provides free music lessons, instruments, education, training, art, dance,
voice and drumline to underserved urban youth ages 5 - 18
