Miss Savannah Juneteenth Scholarship Pageant
About
The Miss Savannah Juneteenth Scholarship Pageant progam is a celebration of heritage, achievement, and empowerment, honoring the legacy of Juneteenth while preparing young women to step into their power with confidence and grace.
Originally launched as part of the Savannah Juneteenth Fine Arts Festival, hosted by Chosen For The Arts, the pageant has since blossomed into its own distinguished event. While we proudly uphold our connection to the festival, the pageant now serves as a dynamic platform dedicated to uplifting young African American women and preserving the rich history of Juneteenth.

Through workshops, community involvement, and meaningful events, the pageant strives to inspire participants to embrace their heritage, cultivate their talents, and confidently pursue their aspirations.
Vision
