In an effort to reduce single-use plastic waste and raise money for the State Theatre’s sustainability fund, the theater is partnering with environmental nonprofit Reverb and water bottle company Nalgene for their #RockNRefill campaign to “Sustain The State.”
Bottles are available in exchange for a $20 donation. Proceeds will benefit The State Theatre’s Sustain The State and Reverb.
The State Theatre, 130 W. College Ave., recently procured grant funding to finance the purchase and installation of a water bottle filling station that will enable patrons to fill up their personal water bottles. The purchase is currently in progress, and more information on installation dates will be available soon.
Sustain The State’s mission is to enable artists and audiences to experience, appreciate and embrace the performing arts in a manner that ensures that future generations have the same opportunity.
Sustainability at The State Theatre is comprised of a diverse array of project initiatives. Current projects include Dispose Responsibly, Hydrate The State and Farm-to-Theatre. For more information, visit www.thestatetheatre.org/sustainability.
Reverb is a nonprofit organization founded in 2004 by environmentalist Lauren Sullivan and her musician husband, Adam Gardner, of Guster. Reverb creates and executes comprehensive, custom programs to ‘green’ the tour itself while engaging concertgoers to take action for the environment.
In addition to their work with artists, Reverb also works to move forward the sustainable practices of music industry leaders, including venues, record labels and radio stations.
