Congratulations to The Arts & Cultural Authority of Claxton-Evans County and the entire community on the grand opening of the Jack & Muriel Strickland Arts & Cultural Center! Fox Gives was honored to attend the ribbon cutting and celebrate the transformation of the former Claxton High School into a vibrant new space for arts, culture, and community.

After supporting this project over the past four years through our Single-Year Grant Program, it was inspiring to see hundreds of community members gather to mark this milestone and the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Evans County and the surrounding region. Projects like the Strickland Center demonstrate how investing in historic theaters and cultural spaces can strengthen communities, preserve local history, and spark economic growth.

Congratulations to the Arts & Cultural Authority of Claxton-Evans County, Chair Adam Kennedy, the design and construction teams, fundraisers, craftspeople, and everyone whose vision made this project possible.

The All-Access Pass Program is an immersive educational program that enlightens and inspires high school students to explore all forms of work in the creative world of the performing arts. This experience connects students with industry professionals, offering insights into career pathways in theater, music, dance, film, and arts management.

This year’s All-Access Pass Program participants were:

Dalton High School
Pebblebrook High School
Putnam County High School
Hart County High School (returning participant)

Over the course of the year, students from these schools participated in workshops, mentorships, and exclusive behind-the-scenes experiences--discovering the many careers that help bring the magic of live entertainment to life! It's been a pleasure to witness them do so. To learn more about the All-Access Pass Program, visit foxtheatre.org/all-access-pass-program

Stay tuned for information on the next group participants!

Georgia’s downtowns are the heart of our communities—and historic theatres play a vital role in keeping them vibrant, connected and full of life.

This August, the Georgia Downtown Association will return to Rome for its annual Georgia Downtown Conference, bringing together hundreds of downtown professionals for education, networking, tours and conversations focused on strengthening downtown development across our state.

Fox Gives is proud to support the people and places working to preserve Georgia’s historic downtowns and cultural landmarks. We hope you’ll consider joining our team August 17–20 for this valuable event, including the Georgia Downtown Awards Ceremony celebrating outstanding achievements in Georgia’s traditional downtowns.
