Thanks to proud supporters, blues musicians and influencers alike, $40,000 was raised for the nonprofit Florida Theatre at the annual Blues, Brews and BBQ fundraiser held Aug. 22. Local dining and brewing establishments were out in big numbers to help contribute their best burnt ends, ribs and other finger lickin’ treats, accompanied by micro-brewed suds to wash it all down.

Support was strong and establishments from the beaches to downtown set up and served their best to include ABBQ Meat & Drink, Monroe’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Q & Catering, MOJO no.4, Urban BBQ Whiskey Bar, Veterans United Craft Brewery, Wicked Barley Brewing Company, River City Brewing Company, Bono’s Pit Bar-B-Q, Intuition Ale Works, Bold City Brewery, Sweet Pete’s Candy and Nothing Bundt Cakes.
