“Many people are expressing their gratitude for a project that brings the true meaning of Easter into the public domain in such a creative and aesthetic manner,” she said.
“So much so that craft kits are now available by donation, for those who would like to contribute by working from their own home.”
The Evergreenhouse initiative, a project partner for the Easter celebration, will be holding a community fundraiser featuring the crowdfunded series “The Chosen”.
The event coincides with the Easter school holidays and sits in the calendar on the Wednesday prior to Good Friday and the Easter weekend.
Ray Budge, a spokesperson for Evergreenhouse, told News Of The Area that the Woolgolga Community Project and the premiere of Season 5’s opening episode “The Last Supper”, were a fitting celebration of “Christian excellence in all aspects of the arts in the community”.
Due to the immense popularity of “The Chosen” series and its bible-based storytelling and culturally accurate depictions, a full house is anticipated.
The series premiere will be screened at Birch Carroll and Coyle Coffs Harbour on 16 April, from 5.30pm.
