HARRISONBURG, VA (Rocktown Now) — Harrisonburg Redevelopment and Housing Authority (HRHA) announced the selection of the CST Collective to manage and operate Court Square Theater.

According to HRHA officials, following a thorough selection process, the CST Collective was chosen for its vision, experience, and commitment to creating a vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable home for arts, culture, and community engagement.

Under the CST Collective’s management, Court Square Theater will continue to serve as a venue for performances, films, creative programming, community events, and other cultural activities.
