San Gabriel City Council Meeting - Sep 15, 2026
The playhouse turns 100 in 2027, and the city is planning a year of celebrations — a museum walk with passport stamps, a free youth theater performance, a symphony concert and a capstone gala to launch a nonprofit foundation. The council added $30,000 to the budget and gave detailed feedback on the new logo and merchandise.
Community Service Commission (Regular) - Jun 1, 2026
A new centennial logo debuts by end of June, and 2027 will bring special events — a candlelight concert, plaza fundraiser, and more — aimed at getting residents who've never been inside the Playhouse through its doors.
We'll email you when it's on an upcoming agenda and when it's voted on, at most once a day.
