Green Valley’s Got Talent, the community’s beloved live entertainment series, is back for another season, showcasing the rich artistic diversity of the Green Valley and Sahuarita areas.
This year’s series, held at the Community Performance and Arts Center (CPAC), promises an exciting lineup of musicians, poets, dancers and even a few surprise acts.
Green Valley’s Got Talent was co-founded by local musician Larry Worster, who was inspired to create the event after moving to Tucson and connecting with other musicians.
Worster initially joined a group called the Silver City Jam Band but quickly realized that the small audiences were a missed opportunity for local talent.
“We had fourteen people on stage, six people in the audience,” Worster shared. “I thought, well, they need a bigger audience, and some people really need a bigger place to play.”
This realization led Worster and his co-founders to launch Green Valley’s Got Talent, a monthly showcase designed to give artists a larger platform.
