“Come Together” was Viva Downtown Redding‘s theme for its annual State of Downtown Redding event Thursday night at the Cascade Theatre.
A wildly colorful Peter-Maxish-style backdrop (designed by the uber-talented Michael Tersieff of Westside Creative) set the evening’s tone.
The celebration recognized Redding businesses and north state individuals whose above-and-beyond efforts in the last year have improved downtown Redding.
Emcees Kenny Breedlove of Market St. Steakhouse and Julie DePrada of Need 2 Speed hammed it up and kept things moving along.
