Carteret officials announced that on Dec. 14, the Honorable Mayor Daniel J. Reiman will join with the Borough Council and Carteret Business Partnership in presenting “Celebrate the Holidays with URSB Carteret Performing Arts & Events Center.”
The free 6 p.m. event will feature a screening of the award-winning 2004 Christmas movie “Polar Express,” officials stated.
Not to mention photo opportunities with Santa Claus, performances by the holiday chorales of Carteret High School and Carteret Junior High School, and a tree lighting with the Mayor, according to officials.
“Our holiday celebration will transform the gorgeous URSB Carteret Performing Arts & Events Center into a winter wonderland, capturing the true spirit of the holidays for families and visitors,” the Mayor said.
“It’s a great opportunity for the community to celebrate the holidays together while showcasing our state-of-the-art arts & events center.”
Earlier in the month, the Borough held a tree lighting in Carteret Park and a menorah lighting at Borough Hall, officials say.
Officials said the arts center is at 46 Washington Ave. and can be contacted at 877-849-2722.
