Mina Klinedinst
Singing
Mina Klinedinst is 11 years old and is a true triple threat on stage! She has been in numerous musical theater productions for nearly half her life and continues to train at Lumi School of Musical Theater for dancing, singing, and acting. Desiring to improve her skills in theater and share her passions with her classmates, she joined a performing arts magnet school in Charlotte. Mina has performed on multiple stages in Charlotte including Theater Charlotte, Carolina Theater, Matthews Playhouse, and ImaginOn: Children's Theater. Her highlights include performing at Disney Springs in Orlando, Florida and Junior Theater Festival in Atlanta, Georgia.
She also performs Indian fusion dance numbers for Festival of India in the heart of Charlotte, and is learning to play a violin. She has written a book of poems that she recited at a talent show and placed in the top three performers of her age level.
When she's not memorizing lines, Mina writes plays, reads Harry Potter, and plays with her dog, Chappals. She dreams of being on Broadway someday, so please support her - and Charlotte Center for the Arts - so that all kids who dream of being in the entertainment spotlight in some capacity can find a place to shine in our community!

ABOUT CHARLOTTE CENTER FOR THE ARTS:
Charlotte Center for the Arts (CCA) is working to address a critical gap in South Charlotte’s cultural infrastructure. This area is one of the fastest-growing parts of the region and is continuing to expand rapidly—yet it lacks dedicated arts facilities, forcing residents and artists to travel long distances or go without cultural experiences. City and County studies have identified the urgent need for accessible, affordable arts spaces outside Uptown. Community feedback reinforces this, citing limited rehearsal, performance, and exhibition venues as a barrier to participation.
We are responding by activating underutilized spaces to meet immediate needs for creative programming and affordable venues, and then opening a Community Arts Hub to provide a more permanent solution. Long term, we are advancing plans for a 100,000 sq. ft. flagship campus that will serve as a cultural destination and provide performance halls, studios, galleries, and gathering spaces—ensuring South Charlotte has the cultural infrastructure necessary to match its growth and deliver equitable access to the arts for all residents: artists, students, and patrons.
