There are moments when you know you're not just building a project, but creating a space where people grow, find their voice, and become who they are. At Drama Kids Sarajevo and through YouthArt, we don't just teach acting. We teach courage. We teach how to stand on stage, in life, and on the platform without fear, without hesitation, without apology. This is not just a story about theater. This is a story about children who believe in themselves for the first time. About teenagers who find their identity. About adults who, despite everything, return to themselves through art. And that's why today I'm not speaking about pride, but about the strength that drives all of this. Arma Tanoviฤ Brankoviฤ is part of that strength. A vision that does not settle for average. Energy that moves boundaries. Persistence that does not give up even when it's hardest. Maybe that's why we do this together," stated the Helen O'Grady Sarajevo academy.
They further said that they do not wait for opportunities, but create them, and that they do not seek support, but build foundations that attract it.
"We don't do this because it's easy, but because it's important. Thank you to everyone who is part of this journey, thank you to our teachers who work with so much love with age groups from 5.5 years old to 70+, to parents who believe, to children who dream, to people who come tired but leave fulfilled. This is just the beginning. See you where courage is born on stage. See you at the Drama Kids Festival from June 15th until June 29th," they stated.
