The arts have a vital role to play in nation building and the well-being of our people.
This is echoed in the words of our late national patron Mama Albertina Sisulu when she said: “𝘔𝘺 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘮𝘺 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘺, 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥.”
Union High School subsequently established the annual 𝗖𝗔𝗠𝗗𝗘𝗕𝗢𝗢 𝗘𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗗𝗗𝗙𝗢𝗗, which will celebrate its inaugural edition this year, as an arts development platform, offering various opportunities to young performers from age 5 to 18, in all communities for participation, development and showcasing of talents in music, dance, theatre and fine arts.
