Starjewel Showcase

Since 2008, our founder has hosted and organized arts contests for thousands of contestants. In 2010, her creative team received international recognition from highly acclaimed Maxis and Electronic Arts. In 2012, operations were moved to Ohio and the idea for StarJewel Showcase was born. Our showcase began as an arts contest. Our initial goal was to promote and feature undiscovered talent in youth through competitive events. StarJewel Showcase has since blossomed to include a natural pageant for all ages - we want the natural you to shine! Our pageant focuses on building your confidence, poise, and presence on stage. We strive to encourage your abilities and your achievements. We welcome all ages. Our events consist of “Required Events” and “Optional Events”. We offer twelve different optionals and five different side awards. Optional Events include our exclusive Talent Optionals consisting of seven different categories of competition.
