The 19th Annual Christmas Spectacular
December 07, 2019
Saturday, December 7th 6:00-8:30 pm
Everett Civic Auditorium
The Christmas Spectacular arose in response to the reported food bank shortages in the wake of 9-11. Down through the years, the show has continued to highlight the need for food donations - and to recognize the importance of "helping those less fortunate than ourselves". The Christmas Spectacular continues to host outstanding musical entertainment. Through the Pledge of Allegiance, National Anthem and God Bless America, our event constantly brings about the awareness that only because of our hard won freedom, do we have the opportunity to be a "Celebration of Life in Our Community over the Holidays".
