Thank you to America’s Decorative Concrete for donating labor and materials to create the Theater on 3rd showing screen.
Main Street Greenville is thrilled to announce that a simple change in venue will allow for a $1,500 savings for the Main Street Greenville organization. First Fridays - Theater on Third will take place Friday, July 5 at dusk with a showing of Despicable Me.
In years past, the organization would rent a blow-up projection screen, a HD projector and the sound equipment to present the movie to a large crowd. In addition, the event required us to shut down the use of a side street off of Broadway (5th St.). Trying to think outside the box, we were able to start a mini grassroots movement to eliminate the need of renting any equipment or shutting down any street.
As with all Main Street Greenville events, it wouldn't have been possible without the help and donations of many businesses and individuals in the community. We are thankful to the following for their donations:
- elementsLife - School of Healthy Living - use of building
- Eric Laux with Laux Farm Services- use of HD projector
- Bach to Rock- use of professional sound equipment
- City of Greenville- use of public parking lot
- America's Decorative Concrete- donation of time, labor and materials to paint the screen onto the building
The always-popular outdoor movie event, previously held on Fifth Street will move to Third Street. The movie will be projected onto the elementsLife building (120 W. Third St.), in the parking lot behind Bach to Rock.
This event is free and open to all. Bring your lawn chairs, blankets, friends, and family downtown for another exciting night presented by Main Street Greenville, and of course, many businesses will stay open late. We hope to see you for First Fridays - Theater on Third!
