Ohlone’s Got Talent Photos and story by Shannon Sorge
The Communication Department held a talent show in the cafeteria on the Fremont campus from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. Friday. Guests of all schools and ages were welcome to show the public what they’ve got, and they did just that. There were varieties of talents, including poetry, guitar, singing, dancing, piano and drum performances; you name it and they had it.
“Ohlone Students Got Talent was a huge success,” speech club secretary Alex Elabed said. “The speech club met its goal of drawing a variety of artists to showcase their talents to involve the campus in our own creative community.” Not only was the entertainment “on point,” but there was free pizza and other delicious treats to snack on.
