Fox Gives

Fifteen years ago, The Fox Theatre Institute was established by the Fox Theatre to foster historic preservation, community building, economic development, and arts programming for historic theatres and their communities throughout Georgia. The founding of the Fox Theatre Institute echoed the 1970s “Save the Fox” campaign which supported the present-day restoration and preservation of our National Historic Landmark theatre in the heart of midtown Atlanta. Embracing the talent and expertise of our professional staff, coupled with decades of preservation and operations experience, we serve dozens of theatres through innovative programs and partnerships of our Fox Theatre Institute. A few of those highlighted areas include: • Programming and booking, historic restoration, strategic planning, and community development at nominal costs to participants. • Providing technical support for historic theatre operators throughout Georgia and important financial support through $2.7 million dollars in grant funding. We assist in bringing landmark buildings to life and help serve as a catalyst for re-investment in cities and counties across Georgia. • Manages Georgia Presenters, a statewide booking consortium for arts programming. Nearly 60 presenting organizations throughout Georgia work together to provide cost-effective cultural programs, leveraging their purchasing power to bring outstanding artists and performances to their hometown.
