Evergreen Cultural Centre

Evergreen Cultural Centre

The Evergreen Cultural Centre is a theatre and music venue in Coquitlam, British Columbia, opened in October 1996 by former Coquitlam Mayor Lou Sekora. The design team was headed by Thom Weeks of Architectura, and the contract was completed by Proscenium Architecture.

The Centre features a 264-seat black box theatre (with configurable seating from stadium to flat floor), a fully-equipped rehearsal hall, three art studios, and a 1500 square foot art gallery with adjoining gallery shop. The Centre is owned by the city of Coquitlam, and is located in Coquitlam's Town Centre Park, overlooking Lafarge Lake.

Programming at the Evergreen Cultural Centre includes live theatre, comedy, musical concerts, visual arts workshops, festivals, and more. The theatre is part of the Arts Club Theatre Company circuit that brings popular plays to the venue. Also housed in the complex is the Coquitlam Innovation Centre, the Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce, and the Tourist Information Centre.

A second 750-seat auditorium has been planned, but has yet to be funded [http://www.bclocalnews.com/tri_city_maple_ridge/tricitynews/news/15333461.html Tri-City News: Bigger Theatre In The Works] ] .
