The vision for the State Theatre foundation is to create a cultural center for the North Central Virginia region and to be recognized as a cultural leader in that region.  The State Theatre Foundation is about more than just the building!  The restoration of the beautiful art deco State Theatre Building is only a portion of our mission.  The main objective is to bring the arts to this thriving community.  Programming began in March of 2007 with an Irish Ceili featuring a dance caller from Ireland.  More programming is currently in the works with a Fall and Winter event. 

Our Board is currently heavily involved with an Architectural Firm in restoring a state of the art Cultural Center in which to continue our programming.  Plans for many seasons of live arts and film to be shown the theatre are already in progress.
