Talent Comes To The Borough August 14th



The Freehold Borough Arts Council in association with DowntownFreehold.com are hosting the first ever Freehold's Got Talent event on Tuesday, August 14th at 7:30pm in front of the Hall Of Records located at 1 East Main Street, Freehold Borough, NJ.

The event which includes 25 acts totaling 65 performers promises to be a variety filled show of the most talented individuals and groups to gather in one place at one time and a winner will be crowned the same night.

The talent extravaganza  hosted by Neal Girandola, a professional actor and writer as well as the President of the Freehold Borough Arts Council, will be judged by a celebrity panel made up of radio personality Lisa Anderson of 107.1 The Breeze; Agent Michael Arbeeny of Jersey's own 107 Productions; and Myndi Lauper lead singer for the nation sweeping 80's tribute band Weird Science.

Open to all ages, talent submissions for the freshman event in the borough began in May and the Freehold Borough Arts Council received close to 60 submissions that included video of all talent. "From there we put together a show not only based on talent but on variety to assure the audience would be in for an amazing event" said Neal Girandola who also produced the show on behalf of the FBAC and DowntownFreehold.com.

"The real goal of this show is to support and bring awareness to the arts in New Jersey, specifically in Western Monmouth County. The FBAC and DowntownFreehold.com continue to provide venues for artists to become inspired and appreciated for their talents" added Girandola.

Additional sponsors for Freehold's Got Talent include the Monmouth Academy Of Musical Arts.

If you are planning on attending Tuesday's event in front of the Hall Of Records, it is suggested you bring a beach chair and arrive by 7pm for this free event.
