Red Bluff's State Theatre for the Arts a community arts center revitalizes historic downtown
The State Theatre opened in 1946 to the enthusiastic support of the Red Bluff
community.
Over the years, the theatre has been more than just a place to see
movies. It has been the site of high school graduations and special events.
Long-time residents may remember it as the scene of their first date. Some say
the neon lettering that spells out STATE was one of their earliest memories.
The
State Theatre demonstrates the capacity of Red Bluff residents to propel their
community forward. From early residents who recognized the need for quality
entertainment in their thriving community, to those who are currently working to
create a community arts center in the theatre anticipating the revitalization of
the community's historic downtown, the State Theatre is a symbol of the
citizens' commitment to their community.
