The Canadian Badlands Passion Play Society is excited to announce their third annual Christmas Banquet and Art Auction.
This year’s event takes place on December 10, in the Elim Pentecostal Tabernacle (formerly Central School). The event is a not only a celebration of the Christmas season but is also a showcase of art and the artists from the region. The evening begins at 6 p.m. with an art auction and reception. Money raised during the auction goes to both pay the artists for their work as well as to benefit the Passion Play.
Be sure to bring your appetite. Dinner will begin at 7 p.m. with a delicious menu prepared by Chef Bernie Germaine from Bernie & the Boys Bistro.
The Rosebud River Valley Boys and Men of the Bud will be performing throughout the evening as well in a special tribute to the 100th centennial of coal mining in the valley.
“2011 was an incredible year for the Passion Play. A new script was written, the stage recreated, a sound system installed, and many changes made to the site and our facilities. We want to invite our friends and supporters to join with us to celebrate the year at our annual Christmas banquet”, says Vance Neudorf, Executive Director of the Passion Play. “It will be a wonderful night of great food, beautiful artwork, and enjoyable music. This will also be where we unveil our plans for the new forum theatre space so be sure to join us.”
Tickets for the event can be purchased by calling the Passion Play at 1-888-823-2001, ext. 221 or by stopping by the office any time between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m, Monday to Friday.
