Omega Psi Phi Talent Hunt is a yearly competition for students to show cast their talents.

The Talent Hunt program is one of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity's internationally-mandated programs. The first Talent Hunt was held April 19, 1946, in Charlotte, NC. The need for such a program was born out of the limited opportunities afforded to some American youth to develop and give full expression of their talents. This program provides exposure, encouragement and financial assistance to talented to students. The Talent Hunt program has been very rewarding to the brotherhood of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. and to many talented youths. The Fraternity will continue to search for and support our gifted youth, in Columbia, Union and Ouachita counties as well the surrounding communities, the State of Arkansas and the world.
