Brewing Up Support: Fox Gives and Jittery Joe’s Coffee Host Pop-Up at Morton Theatre May 13

Fox Gives, the philanthropic arm of the Fox Theatre, and Jittery Joe's Coffeewill host a pop-up coffee event at the historic Morton Theatre on Wednesday, May 13, from 1-3 p.m. to mark the launch of Fox Theatre Blue Sky Blend and celebrate National Historic Preservation Month. The collaboration brings together two Georgia-rooted institutions with a shared commitment to community and preservation of historic landmarks.
Developed in partnership with the Athens-based roaster, the Fox-branded coffee carries that work forward through a broader statewide effort with 15 percent of all sales benefiting Fox Gives. Proceeds support preservation grants, educational programs and partnerships that help sustain historic theaters and expand access to the arts across Georgia. The activation underscores the importance of continued investment in communities, including performing arts spaces like Athens’ Morton Theatre, a recent Fox Gives grant recipient. The coffee is available for purchase in the Fox Theatre Gift Shop and jitteryjoes.com.
The event is open to the public, with guests invited to enjoy complimentary samples of the Fox Theatre Blue Sky Blend alongside a selection of desserts with networking opportunities and unique Fox Theatre giveaways.
