Showcase of Stars is presented by Johnston County Schools for the benefit of the Johnston County Education Foundation. Our public school music teachers each prepare up to 50 students to perform one number. The result is a musical extravaganza that guarantees to entertain.
The Paul A. Johnston Auditorium, on the campus of Johnston Community College, is the venue. Showcase of Stars affords students the opportunity to perform on the stage in front of an audience of up to 1,000 people. It is an awesome experience for the students.The Annual Adult Spelling Bee is held in the Great Hall on the campus of Johnston Community College. The event is held in November.
