The Laveen Youth Talent Showcase is presented by Arizona International Pageants and Laveen Fitness LLC/ Laveen Karate.
Monique Wilhite (Arizona International Pageants) and Claudine Dulaney (Laveen Fitness LLC / Laveen Karate) started the Laveen Youth Talent Showcase in 2024, with the goal to highlight all of the youth talent that our community has to offer! Our 2024 show was a smashing success! We had dancers, singers, musicians and a ventriloquist. We look forward to our 3rd annual show on September 26, 2026.
