The Snohomish Theater Project at the Carnegie once again will be presenting a free Christmas Show entitled “Santa Claus and the Martians”. This year’s production will be an Epic new stage adaptation of  the classic Holiday movie.

 

The Martians are worried that their children are watching too much earth television. So the King of Martians consults an ancient oracle which advises them that Mars needs some fun and Santa Claus. The intrepid King of Mars decides to kidnap Santa Claus from Earth. But wait the Evil Martian Voldar was just fine with unhappy Martian children. So Voldar plots to destroy Santa and the two earth Children (that were also kidnapped).  Along the way, silly Martian Dropo becomes embroiled and entangled in Voldar’s nefarious evil schemes!  What will happen to Santa? Will the Martian Children ever get their own Santa Claus!? The Snohomish Theater Project at the Carnegie will create theatrical ridiculousness out of this not so classic Holiday story.

 

Please bring a non perishable food item to benefit the Snohomish Food Bank.

There is no cost but donations are gratefully accepted.

 

 It is suitable for all ages. Seating is limited so come early.

City Council Approves the Building Design & Site Master Plan

For Snohomish Carnegie Educational Center


Snohomish, WA ~ 11 April 2011:  Last Tuesday night, The Snohomish City Council approved the building addition design report & site master plan for the Snohomish Carnegie Educational Center, A Place For Families.

 

The Snohomish Carnegie Educational Center is located at 105 Cedar Avenue and once served as the Snohomish Carnegie Library from 1910 to 2003. The old library building, which was replaced by the new, award-winning library in 2003, located at 4th and Maple in Snohomish, is the oldest publicly-owned building in Snohomish. It sits on a 1/2 square block in the heart of our historic downtown district.  

 

The current challenge to our community is to bring this site back to a vibrant civic and cultural use for our residents, once again serving our community for educational, recreational and cultural purposes for the next 100 years. The Carnegie building and grounds will be rehabilitated to its historic grandeur.  It was presented to the city in 1910 through the hard work and dedication of the residents of Snohomish and a $10,000 grant from the Carnegie Foundation.

 

The rehabilitation of the Carnegie building and the grounds will be funded via the efforts of the Snohomish Carnegie Foundation as they seek private grants and a private capital campaign. No public funds will be sought.

 

“The Snohomish Carnegie Foundation is humbled to be a part of the community wide effort to bring this grand building and site back to life and re-gift it back to our community for the next 100 years, once again becoming the jewel of Historic Snohomish” said Melody Clemans, President of the Foundation Board.
