Hello Kim,

Shuswap Theatre has called 41 Hudson Ave home since 1980. Other than replacing the front doors, and the addition of a canopy (now removed) no upgrades have been made to the exterior of the building since then. Now, the ravages of time have made renovation essential. Our Operation Facelift committee is beginning a fundraising effort to upgrade the façade, with a target of $85,000.

The project will unfold in three phases:

• Remove the torn, faded awning (completed)
• Replace the deteriorating 1980s siding with modern, fire-resistant material while modernizing the appearance with a bolder, more colourful design; and replace the structurally unsound external stairs
• Replace the old-fashioned marquee with a full colour animated electronic billboard.
