In support of the nonprofit organization Three Square, the Blue Man Group plans to host the Summer Stock Up food drive for locals to donate nonperishable food items at the Blue Man Group Theatre inside The Venetian from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday.

In exchange for their donations, the Blue Man Group will offer one complimentary ticket per person to either the 7 or 10 p.m. performances the same day and a 15 percent off coupon to the Blue Man Group retail store.

To participate, patrons must bring a bag of nonperishable food containing items from Three Square's list of needed donations. The list includes items such as single-serving cereal boxes, fruit cups, granola and breakfast bars, crackers or cookie packs, sunflower seed packets, pop-top canned fruit, trail mix and raisins.

The food will benefit children from low-income homes who are unable to take advantage of school lunch programs due to summer break.
