• We use 55 basic fluorescent bulbs in the second-floor lobby of the theater
(The Heldrich room).

one-eighth the electricity and can last up to 12 times longer than conventional bulbs!
• We recently changed the theater’s thermostat to multi-function programmable
units to run HVAC only as needed.

• We replaced all of our old-style water coolers with water filtration units that tap directly
into our regular water supply. Not only does our water taste better, we have eliminated
both the plastic bottles and the need to have our drinking water delivered by truck...
saving fossil fuels in two ways!
• We now omit the use of the paper order forms in all brochures.
• The Education Department launched a "Go Green" campaign, encouraging schools to
switch to email and the Internet for communication and information sharing. Our goal is to
switch to email and the Internet for communication and information sharing. Our goal is to
make significant reductions in the amount of paper consumed: from brochures and order
forms to invoices and study guides. The switch will also make information flow a lot faster!
• The State Theatre uses FSC certified printers for select print materials.


• All interior wall sconces are run on 8w and 12w cold cathode bulbs (as opposed to 60 watt incandescent bulbs).
• All our bathroom paper products are Tork Products, which are Green Seal-certified 100% recycled paper. Plus, the dispensing systems for our Tork Products reduce consumption and waste.
