Gem Theatre is Now Solar Powered!

An important milestone for the Gem was reached last Friday when the 26Kw solar installation on our roof was switched on, followed by the commissioning ceremony held on Saturday afternoon.

This installation is funded by the Pacific Power Blue Sky program.

Thank you to everyone involved from grant writers to engineers to installers!
