Well the characteristics that cause us to perceive it as blue comes from the light reflecting off of it's surface. So without the light that characteristic goes away. But if you close your eyes (and stay in a lit room) I would say it's still blue, trees falling in the woods and all that.

I don't think "color" is an immutable property of an object

Well, technically your eyes (and the wavelengths they can perceive) are part of the system of light source, box and your eyes that make it blue. If the light source emitted a different spectrum of light the box would reflect other wave lengths, if the box was different it would and if our eyes perceived a different spectrum of light it would also likely be split up into named parts differently.
