State Street Theater In New Ulm Receives $7,500 Grant for Stage Curtain Repairs

State Street Theater has received a $7,500 grant from the New Ulm Area Foundation to help fund essential repairs to the theater’s stage curtains. The grant was formally presented during a recent check ceremony, highlighting the Foundation’s ongoing support for arts and culture in the New Ulm community.

The historic curtains are a key part of the theater’s stage operations and the overall audience experience. Years of regular use led to wear and tear, making repairs necessary to ensure safe operation and maintain the professional quality of performances. With support from the New Ulm Area Foundation, State Street Theater will be able to complete the repairs and continue welcoming audiences and performers into a well-maintained, historic performance space. Community support, including grants such as this one, remains vital to sustaining the theater’s mission and facility.
