Come to Cinema at the State Third Thursday.

The Auburn Placer Performing Arts Center began a film series in the fall of 2009, called Cinema at the State Third Thursdays. The initial offering is a series of award-winning films shown on the third Thursday of each month at 7:00 pm.

A limited number of advance tickets will be available to purchase online. 50 tickets will be available online, and 80 tickets will be available to purchase at the door. The box office will open 90 minutes before the start of each movie.

Since the movie series will be operating with all-volunteer help, any APPAC member or community individual who might be interested in volunteering on film nights is encouraged to contact the office at (530) 885-0156. Areas in which help is needed include: ticketing, concessions, ushering and clean-up at the end of the evening.

Cinema at the State Film Series

On Stage at the State Theatre

The Auburn Placer Performing Arts Center series of live events, On Stage at the State Theatre, features a classical series of concerts, an acoustic series of concerts, and a series of community events.

Volunteers Needed

As APPAC moves into the live theater, music, and movie productions, we need volunteer help in many areas: concessions, ushers, movie projectionists, office help, construction, cleaning, etc. If you would like to help in any way, please call Janis Wikoff at (530) 885-0156.
