 To Our Beloved Community,

So far this year The New State team has made great progress - our biggest success was breaking ground on Phase I - our music park.

We are so close to making the music park a reality, but still need your help.

For every $1,000 raised we'll be able to do a weekend of programming at the New State Music Park starting Spring 2022.

Activating this space will allow us to continue fundraising for major renovation in the theater into next year.

Be sure to keep up with us across all of our social platforms as we develop new and fun ways to engage with you, our community.

Thank you for your continued support and belief in this project.

Please don't hesitate to reach out with questions, concerns or support. We're here for you!


A New State is upon us.

This year we started a series of youth programming to further fulfill our mission to provide resources, engage and give back to our community. Link to our guitar lesson #1 in bio. "Guitar Lessons for Beginners (Muscle Memory 101)" taught by Maleek Patterson is a free online lesson provided by The New State for anyone wanting to learn the basics. Our team has made progress in fundraising this year - moving into construction of PHASE I which is the completion of the outdoor music park. Activating this space will allow us to continue fundraising for major renovation in the theater into 2022/23. To make this happen, we still need your help. For every $1,000 raised we'll be able to do a weekend of programming at the New State Music Park starting Spring 2022. Please donate by clicking the link in bio. No donation is too small.
And that's a WRAP! 👏 Congrats to the Milwaukee Youth Theater on a super successful run of The Hobbit! We had an amazing time and are very much looking forward to continuing our partnership and working together on their next performance, James and the Giant Peach - auditions begin in February🗓 If you are or know of a youth that is interested in performing or participating in any way, please reach out to https://milwaukeeyouththeatre.org/ for more information.
Officially a Construction Zone ⚠️👷🚧 Meet John Hennessy, President of WSAU and developer of The New State with some exciting updates about what’s happening on site.
Did you know? The New State (WSAU) has partnered with Milwaukee Youth Theater (MYT) to put our mission and passion to support the youth to work. For some kids, being on stage and acting is like second nature but for others that aren't as comfortable working behind the scenes is their opportunity to still take part. Our Exc. Director, Dima has been working with Gaenslen 8th grader Corina S., training her on audio, lighting, and video set up for their upcoming performance of "The Hobbit". Join the MYT for this amazing performance this Friday, Saturday and Sunday 11/5-11/7. For more show information & ticket sales.
