Zittel Family Amphitheater in Folsom to get some shade

Folsom Historic District Association receives $30,000 Amplifier Award

From SMUD via the Shine Award Program to help with costs to construct the sun and shade structure on the Zittel Family Amphitheater.

Folsom, CA_ The Zittlel Family Amphitheater is an open air, outdoor performing arts venue and multi-use space in the heart of the Folsom Historic District.

The addition of the shade and sun protection structure will create a year-round, any time of day access hub for entertainment and community events.
