Rochester Broadway Theatre League Receives $1 Million State Grant for Renovation Project
Funding to support upgrades to the Joseph A. Floreano Entertainment and Education Center.
The Rochester Broadway Theatre League (RBTL) has been awarded $1 million in state funding, secured by New York State Senator Jeremy Cooney, to support renovations at the Joseph A. Floreano Entertainment and Education Center, located within the West Herr Auditorium Theatre in Rochester.
Announced on Wednesday, this grant marks the only state funding designated for the renovation of the center, a vital part of RBTL’s education and community programming.
“Arts are the way that we see our world around us and celebrate what makes who we are,” said Senator Cooney. “They are especially needed at this time… probably more than in decades of time.”
The renovation aims to enhance the space’s accessibility and functionality for educational programming, workshops, and community events, furthering RBTL’s mission to make the performing arts accessible to all.
