Check out the article on today's Daily World about last night's wonderful reopening, the Starlight Celebration. We had about 600 people show up to celebrate! Thanks to everyone for your generous donations and support. And thank you to all of the volunteers who helped make this night a memorable success.

Byron from EverGreene is creating the clouds. One thing we have discovered since this project began is that the 'sky' ceiling in the 7th Street is a much lighter shade of blue than most other atmospheric theatres. Also, the cloud formation is unusual. The clouds and sky are modeled after the sky at dusk here on the Harbor. Check it out next time. The clouds line the horizon and the sky above is one color.

This is still 'in progress' but we really wanted to show how amazing this is. Every color of paint in the auditorium has been matched to the original. The 7th Street Theatre Association is extremely proud and fortunate that EverGreene Architectural Arts is doing this project.

This was found inside of what we think is a speaker box above the exit sign in exit doorway. Pretty cool discovery!
