It also serves as a platform to unveil the hidden talents of young people with disability in the performing arts. Under the theme of Tap My Untapped Potential, Sauti Canvas season 2 aimed to challenge biases surrounding persons with disabilities in the music and arts scene.
By highlighting the skills and talents of persons with disabilities, the initiative is a recognition that everyone, regardless of their abilities, deserves the opportunity to contribute to society and pursue their passions.
