Projecting the future for State Theatre
Auburn Journal photography by Ben Furtado

With help from the Placer Community Foundation, the projectors were purchased and installed for the Auburn Placer Performing Arts Center at the State Theatre. The donors are The Constantino Family donating $2,000, Janice L. Forbes Fund donating $1,000, Hideo Ray and Irene Yamasaki donating $1,000 and the Placer Community Foundation Audience Development donating $2,000. The funding process is also being facilitated with a no-interest loan from Patrice Taylor to meet the purchase and installation timeline.

Placer Community Foundation is a public trust established to assist donors in building an enduring source of charitable funds to meet the changing needs and interest of the community.
