The El Paso Community Foundation Jewel Box Series at the Philanthropy Theatre, a community-oriented performing arts series, celebrates its 10th anniversary next season.

The Jewel Box is now accepting application for the 10th season at epcf.org/jewelbox. There is no charge to submit. The deadline to submit is 11:59 pm Friday, July 25.

The monthly performing arts series will run Sunday afternoons from October 2025 through May 2026 in the 200-seat Philanthropy Theatre in the Plaza Theatre Performing Arts Centre.

The Jewel Box Series is open to a wide variety of performing artists and groups from the El Paso border region. Selections will be announced in August.

The Jewel Box Series was created in partnership with El Paso Live in 2014 to help ease the financial burden of performing in the Philanthropy Theatre. In its first nine seasons, it has hosted productions by the late playwright-screenwriter Mark Medoff, late theater icon Hector Serrano, Border Theatre, puppeteer Anthony Michael Stokes, singer Emily Davis, guitarist Doug Adamz, and Star on the Mountain Theatrical Productions.
