The Greater Hazleton Chamber of Commerce as a way of providing information to the local business community and offering new and expanded business networking opportunities conducts the Red Carpet programs monthly. “ We are excited to be hosting for the first time a Red Carpet event at the PA Theater for Performing Arts so that our community can see what a great asset the center is and some of our recent improvements and plans noted Sherri O’Donnell, PTPA events coordinator. The first Red Carpet of the Year is always well-attended breakfast, and gives chance for folks to connect with not only the city, but also the Chamber and hear about what is in store for 2023.
Since hands are our thing, we made a few handmade decorations to adorn our tree. The cute gnome faces match our office furniture, the hand ornaments smells like cinnamon and the star tree topper is made out of paper bags.
