Lehi City Arts Center
Lehi, Utah
After the John Hutchings Museum of Natural History moved to the Memorial Building in 1996, the former museum was renovated and reopened as the Lehi City Arts Center. Limited by its 100-seat auditorium with a combined green and dressing room, the Lehi Arts Council announced plans in 1998 for a new performing arts complex with a 1,800 seat Broadway theater, a smaller 248-seat theater, and a theater-in-the-round. Pledges were secured for $6 million of the necessary $15 million, but fund-raising grew difficult due to competition from other Utah County arts initiatives and the 2002 Winter Olympics Games. In 2003, Lehi City unveiled a $150,000 renovation of the existing arts center.

Alhambra Theater Will be Ready to Open Dec. 1
Ogden Standard Examiner, 27 July 1914, page 10
Progress is being made on the basement of the Alhambra theater building on Hudson avenue, between Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth streets, and the concrete walls are nearly completed. Albert Scowcroft, of the theater company, states that the building will be completed and ready for use by the first of December if there are no unexpected delays in getting material from the east.
The pipe organ is the only eastern shipment that there is a possibility of being delayed but the company has been assured that the instrument will be read for installation when the building is completed.
