CAPAS takes its role in the environment's sustainability seriously, so that the performing arts can continue to flourish in a healthy environment and leave a viable future for generations to come. In order to address environmental issues in a constructive manner, we have adopted an eco-responsible approach to all our activities.
Our commitment to sustainablity is based on cross-functional actions that consider ecoresponsibility from health, justice, economic and community perspectives. To make this vision a reality, we raise awareness and encourage our employees, partners and customers to adopt sustainable practices.
