Not Your Average Joe to host inaugural fundraising variety show

Not Your Average Joe, a coffee shop dedicated to employing individuals with disabilities, is hosting its first-ever fundraising variety show. The event will feature live music, comedy, magic, trick roping, a catered dinner, and a silent auction.

Emily Loughridge and Dwayne Greenhoward from the coffee shop joined News 9 on the Coca-Cola Beverages Porch to share what to expect.

“This event, it's our inaugural variety show. So that means that we're going to invite people in, we're going to have a cocktail hour, and then the real fun begins,” said Loughridge.

The funds raised will help create 100 new jobs for individuals with disabilities.

Thanks to a recent donation from Stella Nova, the coffee shop is expanding to four new locations.

The event is on Saturday, Feb. 1, from 5 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the OKC Farmers Public Market at 311 S Klein Ave.

Tickets start at $150 and can be purchased HERE.
