100th YEAR CELEBRATION OF THE CULVER HOTEL
Multipurpose Room, Veterans Memorial Building, Tuesday, July 23rd at 7PM
One hundred years ago, on September 4th 1924, Harry Culver formally opened his Culver City Skyscraper, The Hunt Hotel. The local newspapers heralded this historical event and thousands of people flocked to see Culver’s new addition to his growing City. Through the years the Hotel went thru a series of phases, owners and occupants including John Wayne, Charlie Chaplin, Red v and even the YMCA to name a few. The Munchkins from The Wizard Of Oz also stayed there. Many stories and lore exist about the hotel and its history. Nothing will be left out. For the first time our Culver High School Interns, Eve Mott and Maren Brown will present their well-researched, photographic history and mysteries of the Culver Hotel from 1923 to today. Please join us as this promises to be an exciting event.
